Mike fought his brain cancer diagnosis for 12 years! He was a warrior like no other! He was first diagnosed in 2009 and again in 2020. He initially had 3 rounds of chemo and 12 weeks of radiation in 2009. He then faced set backs and was diagnosed with tumors on his spine in 2020 and was administered an oral chemo pill. In the summer of 2021, Mike was accepted into a trial at MD Anderson. Unfortunately, the trial was unsuccessful and Mike underwent additional radiation to his spine which left him with further complications. He returned to San Antonio and passed away in January 2022.
Mike was a gentle giant who loved to fish, play Legos and dominoes, spend time with friends and family and of course accounting. He was also active with Fitness in the Park, free exercise classes put on under the Parks and Recreation Department with the city of San Antonio. We have made many friends through the program and many run and walk with us each year to help spread awareness!
