I've lost many friends over the years, but Mike was special. He was my close buddy for over 50 years.
Together we worked, rode motors, drank, smoked & cared for each other.
So sudden and so unexpected!
I am devastated.
Sorry for puking my guts & gratitude for listening.
 
OHHH BUGGER!!!....That's a tough one..gonna take a while for the pain to stop......my heart bleeds for you Brutha.
 
Man a 50 year + friendship and for him to go unexpectedly that be very hard on anyone.

You take care 1olbull.
 
Just getting some details . . .
Mike was out riding his KTM dirt bike, fell and broke his ankle.
He was on the mend and being a fit guy, he went to the gym.
While working out, apparently the ankle threw a pulmonary embolism and he fell over dead at 71 years.
 
The loss of that kind of friend will put a hole in your life that is hard to fill... My thoughts and prayers olbull.
