Sisters-in-law, Ann (Frankie) Swinford and Kay (Lewis) Elmore and many nieces and nephews. Mike’s final request: Do you know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior? Mike would’ve shared this with you if you ever met him… You don’t have to work your way into heaven or to become a Christian. We could never be good enough on our own. All we have to do to be a Christian is to believe that Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins (Romans 3:23/John 3:16), believe that He is the only way to get to heaven (John 14:6) and then pray and ask Him to forgive us of our sins and to save us (Romans 10:9).
