Our past president, longtime co-chairman of the Strongsville homecoming committee, Mike was a leader to not just our business community, but to all of us in so many ways. He touched the lives of everyone he met.
He was totally dedicated our community, and principally his family. Our deepest condolences to Michael Jr., Cynthia, Kim, and all of the grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
We will all miss his leadership, strength and wisdom. But most of all we will miss his kind, generous, trusted friendship. We will always remember the lessons that he taught us, and cherish his gentle smile and the twinkle in his eye.
Thank you Mike for your service to our country and community. We miss you!

Mike will always be remembered as a kind, funny, generous man. Dave’s memories go back to when he was 16 and working at the fence company, to post retirement and Mike had him right back to work. It didn’t matter how many times he said ok this is going to be my last day, Mike would be on the phone the next morning “Karen is Dave coming into work today?” This is a very special man. God bless him and his loving family. All our love, Karen and Dave Jager
