Carol Wisenburg shared Mike Googe’s death news and wrote,
“My sweet, unique, funny, chatty, sometimes blunt cousin, Mike Googe the last time I saw him. We had lunch at his choice, Meadow Lakes golf course. I’m grateful for the time we had to catch up, the phone calls, and laughs. On that day, I heard him give God glory three times for changing his life forever. Today, we know we will see him in his new home in Heaven.
Love ya, Mike. Until we meet again…”
A Celebration of Mike’s life is scheduled to take place on Sunday, October 8, 2023, at John Henry’s at Meadow Lakes Golf Club, commencing from 4 PM until 6 PM. It will be a time to remember and honor the life of a man who made a lasting impact on the lives of many.
