However, most of all, he loved joking with family and friends.  His love of fashion was evident by his hat, sneaker, and cologne collections. He was a self-proclaimed public defender, representing and winning grievances filed.

Mickey chose to expand his skills in carpentry after graduation while working at Woodbine Developmental Center.
