We honored Mike for his years of work and dedication to our farm. He is a man of respect, perseverance, and integrity. He always showed up to work extra early at the crack of dawn and put in the extra time and effort, just because that's the kind of guy he is. He worked hard and could always be counted on. His specialty was agronomy and crop management. He was the kind of guy you wanted your kids to be around and have an influence on. He didn't have a temper, smoke, drink, or chew or say a bad word. He is a God fearing man with a kind nature. Today we celebrated his years with us at The Second Street Emporium in Webster City. We invited his entire family, all our employees and families, and a few friends, including the Buhr's. It is through Mike that we met the Buhr family. Dan gave a nice prayer and commended Mike for the kind of guy he is quoting a scripture verse of Mike, "Iron Sharpens Iron". Mark talked of Mike and his appreciation. We then had a nice meal, open bar drinks, and conversation. Mike was humbled and emotional when Mark talked to honor him. It was a special night.
