I met Big Mike last year at Therrell High School during summer school. He would have us cracking up all day. Me and one of my coworkers just talked about how cool it would be if we got the same group this summer then we got the news of his passing. Even though we wanted you to stay, God had other plans. So I say to the family stay strong and know you will see Mike again

My sincere condolences to The entire Jennings family. Mike and I were high school teammates at Mays and At CAU. Mike always found a way to make You smile/ or laugh with a fond memory or some kind of Joke! The Last time we saw each other we sat on the back of his red truck and share some stories and old jokes about Kirby Mac and our football teammates at Mays. I didn't think that would be the last time I would see Big Mike but it was😒 ...Rest Easy ole Friendβ€ΌοΈπŸ’œπŸ•ŠοΈ
