Mike was my very first Forum buddy.

That is horrendous news. We still have people in my country who dismiss the virus as scaremongering. Rest in peace Michael - you were a good man.

Oh what a punch in the heart. Really hits me hard. I never personally knew "Mikey" but knew Gospel groups he recorded with, and his name would come up.

So sorry to hear this. Praying for Mike's family and friends....

I'm shedding tears for Michael. He was such a good guy, player, and source of knowledge and inspiration. I wish his family strength in this difficult time.

This is very sad... I didn't know Micheal, but thought he was pulling through this and then he didn't... Praying for his family... how hard this must be for them.

Damn, I have to say I am shocked. I only knew Mike through the forum, but I felt a camaraderie towards him as I do towards many of you here. I'll say a prayer for him and his family tonight.
More and more these days I'm reminded how fragile life is.

Another gut-wrenching notification. Like Roy Peterman said, I too knew Mike from his days with Tammy when we did shows together. He sure was a great guy..!!

My prayers and deepest sympathies go out for Mike, his family and friends.

Larry Dering · Post by **Larry Dering** » 5 Dec 2020 7:37 pm

That really hurts. I was convinced he was on the recovery. My deepest prayers for Mike and his family.

Tommy White · Post by **Tommy White** » 5 Dec 2020 8:00 pm

I also thought Mike was going to pull through per his posts. This invisible monster is so random and unfair. Paul Franklinâ€™s analogy of it being a beast is correct.
I know Heaven will accept our dear friend with open arms.

Very sad news. I have had several friends in my area die from COVID-19. Just learned of another friend put on HOSPICE today. Please try to be careful.
