Jim I talked with Dennis Robbins a while ago, as many of you know Dennis traveled with Mickey to all the races. Dennis said his dad Leon came home and found him this evening in the house. Mickey's health had not been good for a while and was in need of a liver transplant.
Mick was a great friend who would do anything in the world for you and was the King of BS as many others can attest to. He will be sorely missed by many without a doubt. If Mickey couldn't make you laugh then there was just no hope for you! And you know they got all tangled up down at the scales! RIP my friend

I was really hoping this was not true but unfortunately it is. His unique personality will be greatly missed by all down here in D2. RIP my friend. Jim

I'm heartbroken, Mickey was a good racer, and a very good friend. The world, and drag racing in general, lost a lot. I'll miss him terribly.

Never met him , but felt like I knew him from his posts here. Hilarious mostly

RIP Mickey. Hard to believe. Seems to be happening way to often now.

Condolences from the Tosto Racing family. Wheelstanding 69 Camaro convertible and obviously a great racer, rest in peace. Tony, Tim Tosto.
