Dear Lloyd Family
My heart goes out to you for the loss of Mike. I can't believe he has passed from this life. The good thing is he is in a far better place now; God only takes the best. Mike and Brian both were good friends to me while I was employed at Firestone. I am sure he will be sorely missed. The family is in my heart and prayers; may God help you through this sad time.
