Mike was such a powerful mentor to me growing up. Baseball, fixing my car and talking for hours, catching up with him in my office. Always talking about Chris, Rick, and cherishing old memories of hanging out at the house with the Prieto's. A beacon of stability, support, and mentorship for so many kids. Sending love to Chris, Rick, and Mrs. Prieto!
I was lucky to have been the Prieto’s neighbor, and involved with him and his whole family in Carmel Youth Baseball. I also used his mechanical services on many occasions. He was so proud of all his kids and a great mentor to them and all the young people whose lives he touched. One of his greatest traits was calmness in all situations. My thoughts to the whole family.
