Mike was born and raised in Woodstock, NB where he met and married the love of his life and together they relocated to Toronto where they began their family by bringing their first born Rodger into the world. Mike took the family back to Woodstock to be with his own father and welcomed their second born Sherry, shortly after retuning to Toronto. While in Toronto Mike began his truck driving career with Richards and he continued to drive truck for the majority of his life. He was affectionately known as Playful Pup on the CB radio. He enjoyed the CB so much that it started a lifelong hobby and led to the creation of the CB club Canadian Air Transmitters (CAT Club). Mike also had a deep love for hockey and the Toronto Maple Leafs, which lead to coaching multiple teams including his own son which he took great pride in. He was also an avid bowler and bowled on the weekly teams.  Mike had the great joy of welcoming multiple grandchildren and eventually great grandchildren to the family making the dinner tables fuller along with his heart. Mike made friends everywhere he went with people and animals alike, his contagious smile, infectious laugh, and encompassing hugs will be missed by many.
