We are all going to miss him so much. It was like having dad with us for all these years. He was loved by all and I am so grateful that I got to visit in June. Your faith and family will be a great comfort. All my family sends their prayers and sympathy.

The Gooch Family would like to send our love and prayers to Aunt Jeanne and family for the loss of Uncle Mike. He was such a wonderful man and meant so much to us. I have such precious childhood memories of him being with my mom and dad and sisters. I think of our trips to Minnesota, Uncle Mike courting and marrying Aunt Jeanne, vacationing on the beach in CA, our first trip to Disneyland and on and on and on…
As an adult he was a very special person to Bill and our boys. He and Aunt Jeannie came to countless family occasions traveling to our home for Don’s Eagle, graduations, weddings and so much more. When we went to St. Louis they always welcomed us with open arms and insisted we stay with them. Uncle Mike was like a second father to us. We know he was welcomed with open arms in heaven by so many family and friends but we will miss his presence so much in our lives. We love you.
