Was so sad when I heard that my friend was gone . Mike was such a kind person and so interesting and full of knowledge. May the Lord give strength to his family in the days to come and peace in the knowledge of His Grace .
Carla, Ron & Family Members,
I am so sorry for your loss of Mike, a beloved family member. I first met Mike during some Master Gardener functions years ago. He was a pleasant man and we conversed on several occasions. When he saw me in town shopping one time, years later, he acknowledged me as well and we talked for awhile then too.
Carla I know he was a very special brother and you can be proud of him; he was a good man and he is now at peace.
My love and sympathy-Robin
Mike and I were classmates at Metropolitan High School, and I also served in the USN. So sorry for you loss.
Dear family of Mike Tull: We are so sorry that he is no longer with you. Our prayers and hearts go out to all of you. His name was added to our prayer book this morning at church. May God bless you all with his peace.

So sorry to hear the news but what a blessing to have the memories of when we all grew up together on Baseline road. I was sure Mike was going to be a general in the army since he was so obsessed with army garb. What a great family to be a member of and to have the opportunity to be a part of. May all the family feel the arms of God for comfort and our prayers are with you.Love you guys "weasel"
