"At a family lunch I announced I would give everyone under 18 years of age $2 as a door prize. I asked all under 18 to raise a hand -- Mike raised his hand, ha. Mike had a sense of humor. It was always a pleasant experience to be in the presence of Mike. Betty Cintas"
"My son George Allen Cintas' marriage to Kristi provided me the opportunity to be family with Mike. He was a gracious, humorous, gentle spirit. All our family loved him. We have a warm place in our hearts for Mike. Blessings for all his beautiful family, especially his "ROSE", Helen."
