Mike was very involved in the community and was one of the founders of the Westville Rink Project. He was a Scout Master and played and coached hockey and baseball and sang in the Barber Shop Quartet.
He will be loving remembered for his artistic skills and his talented carpentry work building beautiful pieces of furniture for family, especially the cradles he built for his grandchildren and later great-grandchildren.
