Mike was the best coach I’ve ever had. He always believed in me and my abilities, he helped me grow as a player and person. I miss playing for him because every time I stepped in the rink and he was there I knew it was gonna be a good day. He was definitely an important male role model in my life and so many others. I’m gonna miss him so much, my condolences go to Mike’s family.

Please accept my sympathies on this profound loss of Mike. I worked with Mike at the CBSA.
