Mike served as a missionary for 17 years, loving and caring for the poor in Nicaragua. He built a church in Leon with support from Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa and the people of Nicaragua. He installed Christian FM broadcast radio stations as well as amateur ham radio stations around the world which allowed missionaries to keep in contact with their families.

Mike was preceded in death by his parents, Lorraine and William Gaude; infant niece, Adelle Inez Jahneke; uncles, Foster, Meredith and Gordon (Bev) Glasgow; and aunt, Elizabeth Gaude
Mike appreciated the warm welcome he received from the Great River Amateur Radio Club each time he visited Dubuque.
The family would like to thank Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa and Go Ministries for their generosity through the years, Dwight Williams for his love and support for Mike's family and Kelly Colman, of Blessings for Obedience Ministry, in Midland, TX, for his constant support of Mike in his missionary work.
