I dont know where to put this but I wanted people who knew Mike Rhein that he passed away this morning, Family told me he died in his sleep very peaceful. For those of you that did not know Mike he was a stand up guy, ask him a question and he would tell you the truth. He was the grey haired man that was in room 110 with great clean items. His wife Ellen was always there with him. We truly lost a great man in the business and a friend. Love ya Buddy. You will be so missed.

I've been collecting since I was 15, with my first Iowa Gas in 1996.
I've know Mike since then, and he was always super nice to me.
Rest in Peace Mike!
