My deepest condolences to the entire Wildman family. Mike and I shared many a laugh at EPL and Sizzler. I always felt fortunate to be able to work with him twice in my career. I am sorry for your loss.

Michael wildman, there are so many wonderful and unselfish things this man did. He had a lot of secrets that had people knew about would have made you look at him in a even better light. I was so honored to have been a part of that personal secret that only makes me that much heartbroken. You will forever be missed and remembered every day of my life.
