Mike sadly died last Friday, and in the wake of his death more and more details about his life are surfacing. Specifically how much he helped out Rosa Parks...
Parks moved to Detroit, but was robbed in her home in 1994. Ilitch put Parks in a nicer apartment in a safer part of town, and paid her rent for the rest of her life.
Rest in peace Mike. Thanks for the sports, and the pizza, and for being super awesome!
