Really sad to hear. Haven’t seen Mike in many years but always considered him a friend. Stand up guy. Condolences to the family.

Knew Mike and his family from our neighborhood Ping Pong as a child. He was funny and never had a shirt on. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time of sorrow

Grew up just a few houses down from the Abernathy family. Played baseball in our yard all the time. Haven’t seen Mike in decades but sure remember some great times as kids. RIP Mike.

I grew up on 82nd Street in Centerville, IL as a child. I did occasionally see a shirtless Mike with a pair of blue jeans and boots cruising down the street on his 10 speed bike. Good memories of youth. Rest in peace in Heaven.
