Mike, known to the music world as JR, certainly was an inspiration to many, many people; especially the group called "The Good Ole Boys" who loved him dearly. His compassion for music and his talent was unbelievable. He definitely was the "Good Ole Boys" hero. When they appeared in various counties the first question asked was, where's JR? He will be sadly missed and with a high profile of admiration, we were blessed with the quality time spent with JR. May the Good Lord Bless and keep you until we meet again. The Good Ole Boys.
