We are saddened to share the passing of Mike Stonesifer. Mike participated each year in our Wreaths Across America ceremony at Keysville Union Cemetery. Please keep his family, friends, and fellow veterans in your prayers.

We are so shocked and sad today to wake up to the news that our very recent former employee and keeper of our cold box Mike Stonesifer passed away yesterday. Mike worked for us for many years after his retirement from the Sheriff's Department.
Our hearts are broken for Brenda, Vince, Adria, his precious grandchildren, and family who he loved dearly. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate these very tough first days.
Mike was a dedicated advocate for Veterans and gave freely of his time and talents to the American Legion to support them in every and anyway he could. He loved the Orioles and Ravens and always had a quick commentary on their latest games, that usually showed his wit and included his little chuckle.
You will be greatly missed Mikie. Rest easy, Sir.

President Greg Crane
