I met Michael at Eagle Hills Golf Course as part of a local chapter of Idaho Golf Fellowship. While he was not the greatest golfer in the world--as he would often tell me--he thoroughly enjoyed the fellowship of our Bible studies and the opportunity to play a few holes of golf with fellow believers. I always enjoyed riding on the golf cart with Michael, learning about his life and his deep love for our Creator and Lord. I am so glad that Michael and Marie had the opportunity to take some exciting trips and visit many parts of the world before he became incapacitated. I, and many of the members of Idaho Golf Fellowship, will deeply miss Michael and his love for God.
