Mike Valentine Tribute
Mike Valentine was the epitome of a gentleman and a true embodiment of passion, humility, and generosity. Whether engaging with newcomers or old friends, Mike always had time for everyone. His warmth, sense of humor, and genuine interest in others left a lasting impression on all who had the privilege to know him.
A lover of Porsches, fine wine, and life's finer things, Mike shared his enthusiasm and knowledge freely with the community. From thrilling track days in his Carrera GT and 918 to his countless contributions to the Porsche Club of America, Mike brought people together and made them feel valued. He was never too busy to offer a helping hand or engage in deep, meaningful conversations, whether about cars, technology, or life in general.
His legacy goes beyond his many accomplishments and impressive cars—it lies in the relationships he nurtured, the laughter he sparked, and the way he made everyone feel like they belonged. Mike’s humble approach to success, his commitment to his family, and his unwavering kindness will never be forgotten.
Mike will be dearly missed, but his spirit will live on in the countless lives he touched and the memories he created. May his memory continue to inspire us to be as present, as generous, and as kind as he was.
Rest in peace, Mike.
