Trailer Rental business and thought it best to live in a rural area. He owned and operated the Bridgeport
Mobil, Bridgeport Towing, and also Bridgeport Vacation Trailer rentals.

Mike prided himself as a storyteller. He was famous for his extravagant yarns that weaved a story sure
to bring about wonderment and his infectious laughter. He also like to deep-sea fish, trap shoot, ride his
Harley, travel, golf, and called himself the "great white hunter". He liked to help youngsters learn to
hunt and helped them at trap shooting. He also took pride in his yard, especially the lawn.

Mike also firmly believed in the the saying: IT'S 5 O'CLOCK SOMEWHERE
