Mike and I met in 2021 and dated for some months. He was such a bright part of my life and I loved him very much. I’m absolutely devastated to find out about his passing. I met Mike just as I moved to BC as a fellow Ontarian. His infectious energy and kindness was something I’ve always remembered. We met at a horrible dive bar in Kelowna while he was on a Moose tour and bonded since I had done a Moose tour years earlier with Esteban as my tour driver. We hit it off immediately and spent the next six months commuting back in forth from Kelowna to Nelson to see each other. I remember one of our first dates, after leaving a bar, we heard a woman screaming across the street. Before I could turn to say “we should help her”, Mike was already sprinting down the street to her. Mike was going through a lot during this time but was always respectful and loving. He truly had the best intentions in every situation and always wanted to bring a smile to those around him. When he had to move back to Vancouver in 2022, he asked me to come with him - and although we broke up just before, I still wound up in the city and have him to thank for where my life is now. I will continue to miss him.❤️
