Mike was a retired Captain of the US Navy and served his country in the Vietnam War. He loved building houses for Habitat for Humanity, building furniture, and babysitting his grandkids.

Adored by her co-workers and clients, she worked tirelessly for those who don’t have a voice. She was an Eucharistic Minister to the Homebound for St. John Neumann and was actively involved in her CRHP group. Kathy worked out every day at Curves, made beautiful stamped cards, and baked the best pies and cookies for family, friends, and clients. Mike and Kathy went to every Bears’ game together and loved serving their church. But, more than anything, Mike and Kathy loved their grandchildren.
