Im extremely sad and heart broken that we lost of one the best today. Mike was an amazing person! One of the best drivers I’ve ever had in 17 years of trucking and just an awesome personality. He worked extremely hard and made sure when he did something it was done right. I still remember countless conversations we had that lasted hours in parking lot or on the phone discussing trucking and how to make our operations better. It was always fun to chat with him about life. He was very interesting and entertaining. Mike’s favorite truck was Kenworth W900 and we would always share photos of W900 we would come across. He was always willing to help and shared his personal experiences that helped me a lot. When we needed help with getting more freight he helped us find a customer. When we wanted to purchase a property in Texas he took the time from his day off which was already brief to drive a couple of hours to help make sure the property was convenient for trucks accessibility. He was always willing to go above and beyond to help people. Every employee at the office loved Mike. Drivers called him to ask for guidance. I’m devastated and very sad. Love you buddy and rest in peace brother! I would love for everyone to come together in this difficult time and help his family. They can really use it right now.
