Lost my Brother Mike
09 Aug 2025 06:26
Sad times in my house.
My Brother Mike passed this past Thursday
He was doing what he loved , riding his motorcycle.
Every Thursday morning he would meet up with a group and go for a ride.
While riding along the corn lined country roads with friends he had a heart attack.
A rider behind him observed Mike slow down to 30 mph , wobble , and just fell off his bike.
He passed before hitting the ground
I miss him and always will.
He went out doing what he loved
Ride with the Angels MIke
Love you Bro
Dave

That's a Tough one Dave, Sorry to hear. Just goes to show how fleeting life is and often just taken for granted until a calamitous event like this happens. I have No problem telling my family and buddies i Love them whenever i see them. Not even alcohol induced either, just because we Never Know what tomorrow will bring. Was that photo the funeral procession?

Then AShes interned at Military National Cemetary Great Lakes
Mike was a Vietnam Vet in the US Navy so he will rest in honor
His son Jeff is organizing a memorial run of bikes which we hope to make a yearly event
Thanks again to all my KZR friends for the support during this time of grief
