To the Haag Family
Michael was a good friend of mine at AM General. We worked together on several occasions.
Mike was always proud of his boys and the acomplishments they made in 4-H. We haven\’t seen each other much since we both retired, but I think of \”Shorty\” quite often. God Bless all of you during your time of morning.
