I had the pleasure and honor of rockin & rollin with Mike in the band reckless with Danny Mixon & J.R. Grant for a few years. I've never met a more honest, sincere, genuine, humble,
upbeat and down to earth guy! Not to mention a hell of a musician. Mike will be missed dearly by many. RIP brother.
My father, Billy Dedmon would go to his cousin’s house, Fred Dedmon on Saturday mornings just to hear Mike play. Mike was such a gifted musician. Daddy could listen to Mike play for hours. I would have people ask me if we were related because they knew Mike from his guitar playing. All of my memories of Mike were good. He was kind and humble and never bragged about his talent. He let the guitar speak for him.
Rest In Peace Mike and I know Daddy will be so glad to hear you play for him in Heaven.

I met Mike at Bradford School elementary in the 60's. He always played his guitar for the school and he and Amy would sing. I fell in love with Mike and his music then and have cherished his friendship for many years. Prayers to his family and friends. I will miss you.
