My sincere condolence. Montiel, family and Garza family
I was sorry to hear today of Mike’s passing he was truly an awesome man particularly in the Corvette community I met him probably around 1982 when I had a 79 Corvette and he did some work for me. Later on I was restoring a 1971 Corvette and he had an engine there and I bought it from you from for my restoration. He was a very awesome man when it comes to Corvettes and the knowledge and the reputation around town in Beaumont outstanding.
Sorry to learn that Mike has passed away.
Mike loved his profession and had a great reputation for his efforts in selling Corvettes. Many years ago I purchased a Corvette from him, great experience.
Becky & my thoughts are with the family.
I meet Mike in the early 80s and he showed me how to do fiberglass work any time I had a question he was always there with an answer. I would tell him he was one of the few Yankees I like. Any time I would see him around town I would call out dad and people would look at him. To Peggy and the girls your husband and dad was special to me. I’ll see him again one day and holler out dad.
Mike was like my brother.We shared so much in our youth.Will always miss him
Mike hired me while I was still at the Unity Addiction treatment center. Mike gave me a chance knowing that I was at a treatment center which I will always be grateful for his kindness. He was super helpful on my road of recovery. Thank you Mike Flash and thank you Peggy. You are in my prayers. May God bless your coming days.
I’m so sorry to hear about Mike he was such a great guy and friend, I will miss him. We are praying for the family.
Dear Peggy, Meredith, Sarah and families,
Sending you all big Aussie hugs – we treasure the warm memories of the visits to Melbourne, the drinks in the backyard, the dog tales, Chevy chats and fun times visiting your gorgeous family and grandkids down under.
May Mike rest in peace.
Mat, Lucy, Hannah and Max

We have known Mike nearly 20 years and have beautiful memories of first meeting him at Meredith and Brian’s wedding here in Melbourne.
We were immediately drawn to his caring nature, his love of laughing and immense love for his family. We have loved catching up with him and Peggy on his visits here. Sending love to Peggy, Meredith and Sarah on the passing of Mike..

Dixie and I have known Mike and Peggy probably for at least 35 years. They were neighbors of ours at Crystal Beach for over 10 years. Mike was a heck of a guy who had more friends that you could possibly count. He loved the beach and was there practically every weekend. We were so sorry to hear about his passing as we had no idea he was ill. Rest in peace Mike.
Peggy just think about all of the wonderful memories you now have of the two of you for all those wonderful times you spent together. Nothing can take those away.
Another good one gone🙏🏻. None better than Mike❤️ God bless the woman behind this man. I can’t think of Mike without thinking of Peggy – they were a well oiled machine.
Aunt Peggy, Meredith and Sarah, so sorry to hear of Mike’s passing. He was a good man who lived his family. Take comfort that he is at peace. ❤️
Mike was the MAN when it came to cars. Loved going to Corvette Specialties and visiting with one of the cats or dogs in the showroom. My Dad thought so highly of Mike and Peggy. He will truly be missed.
Mike had a heart of gold and was always ready to help if you called with a need. He will be greatly missed.

Mike taught me alot. I loved him like my dad.
I’m Patricia, I was his stylist for many years. He was such a nice guy. He talked about stuff that went on at the shop . He used to bring Dolly his dog in wth him when he got hair cut. Then she passed .. Mike and Peggy had Dolly for years . Such sweet dog . . I will miss Mike , He was very nice , and fun to talk too.
Few as good, non better than this man. Stayed up on tech, fitness, diet, and business better than most half his age. He will be sorely missed. RIP Mike
To the family, prayers to the grace of God is mercy. She’ll always be with you and the strength of you and this time of bereavement..
