    I can’t find the words to describe how much Mike will be missed. To Marti and the rest of the Odell family my deepest condolences. Mike was a wonderful boss and moreover he was a great friend, I will keep all of you in my prayers

    The big smile with a twinkle in his eye. That’s how I will remember Mike. An absolute gem.

    As a regular customer at Romigs I got to know him well. But when I began landscaping at his house two years ago, that’s when our friendship really took off. What a pleasure to have you as my ‘big brother’.

    I will never ever forget you. Thank you for the warmth, kindness, respect and always having my back. That’s the kind of guy you are …. A gem.

    I’m thinking of Marti and the family and pray for their path to finding peace during this difficult time.

    Fly high buddy !!

    I was so sorry to hear of Mikes passing. He was a wonderful guy. He was my recruiter when I joined the Army in 1996. He was a great father, human being and a great American. I had the pleasure of catching up with him a few years ago. My heart goes out to his family. I am deeply sorry for their loss.



  35. Matt Veader on April 15, 2025 at 11:20 am

    I will miss Mike very much. He had a positive impact on my life and was a true friend and mentor. I like to think he looks over us now from Heaven and will always continue to protects and guide us; just in a different fashion.

    My heart goes out to Marti and Sean as well as the rest of the O’Dell family.

    Taken from us too early, may Mike rest in piece.
