Mike will be missed he was a very dear friend. When Anita opened the café and we got to visiting it was great to hear the stories about Smithville. He was down at the down at the Big V one time when Mom Velma Smith Harris and some of the others girls was getting off work. Mike was on this bike and the girls dared mom to take a ride with Mike. Mike said get on so mom did he took her for a ride out KK. He was great and he will be miss greatly.
