Mike was involved as a soccer and t-ball coach for his children. He was an avid Raider fan and enjoyed attending football games and collecting memorabilia throughout the years.
He famously scored four touchdowns in a single game for Polk High School in Chicago during the 1966 City Championships.
Mike will be greatly missed in his absence and may he rest in peace.
