I did a dish-net install for Mike at his Swanse house back in the early 2000’s…a very nice guy,the type you meet and feel you’ve known him for years…whenever he saw me in town he remembered my name and said hello….very nice guy.
Happen to think about Mike Patterson today. He was an amazing individual that left an impression that never left which is a good measure of a very important role model in one’s life. We should all be so fortunate to have individuals like Mike come into our lives and make a difference that is kind and an example of truth. I miss you, Michael Patterson.
