My condolences to the family. I will miss seeing my fellow sailor driving up and down the road.

FRANCES AND FAMILY, YOU ARE ALL IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO ONE OF OUR CUSTOMERS CAME IN THE OFFICE. (SHE LIVES HERE IN TOWN) SHE TOLD ME SHE HAD A MESSAGE FOR ME. I ASKED HER WHAT AND WHO. SHE SAID MICHAEL MCDANIEL SAID TO TELL YA'LL HELLO. I ASKED HOW SHE KNEW HIM. SHE SAID HE HAD REDONE ALL THE FLOORS IN HER HOUSE AND DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB AND WAS A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH. I TOLD HER THAT I WAS NOT ONE BIT SURPRISED, HE HAD BEEN THAT WAY ALL THE YEARS THAT WE HAD KNOWN HIM.

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. Mike was a familiar sight in Avalon. May God hold you and your family in the palm of His hand as you go through this time of loss.
