people and community via the organ donation. This is in my view, the continuance of the selfless way he lived. He spent decades giving back to this community as politician, advocate for the environment and fiscal responsibility. Mike spent countless of hours in council sharing the logic that we must respect and revere the protocols and procedures of council, we must have regard to the fact that taxes are a fiscal sacrifice for the public and that we must be responsible with how these funds are managed. He worked to protect the poor, the water moraine, and our democracy. He was a wonderful and energetic father and loving husband to Mary. He was a wonderfully positive man with a great sense of moral and ethical justice and a smile that could light a room. I pray his legacy will continue to influence positive changes in our community. God bless Mike and his family. <br></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="arial, helvetica,
