Live With Honor Mike Panus

Mike's life was on the fast track to success. As a proud Marine and College student in his Senior year, Mike's life came to an abrupt halt one cold winter night in 2005. Mike was celebrating with his friends and decided to get behind the wheel of his car after having too much to drink. His vehicle slipped on a patch of black ice and violently crashed. The accident killed his friend and left Mike in a coma suffering multiple life-threatening injuries. After years of rehabilitation, Mike still struggles with the physical and psychological scars caused by the tragic event. Instead of allowing the tragedies in Mike's life to ruin his life, he strives every day to be the best Daddy to his amazing daughter and have a positive impact on as many lives as possible. Showing everyone by example of how Mike lives his life that anything is possible, and life is what you make it.
