I knew My uncle Mike as Funny and intelligent person. He was always goofy and I enjoyed as a kid him speaking like Donald Duck . Hence that is why us kids always called him Uncle Duck. He was always very kind to his nieces, and would quietly reprimand us when our parents weren’t around. I loved when we would play cards when we at the Cowlitz river. He loved camping and fishing, or least watching my dad Michael Lerma and my papa bring in a couple of steelhead from the river. I am glad he was my uncle, and he will surely be missed!
