– Dad was a great and wonderful person. He had very good within him and always had something new going on, says the daughter Tilde.
Michael’s game debt came to the surface when he tried to take several loans via his daughter’s phone, in her name. Finally, Tilde told his big brothers who then asked Mikael about it all, and it broke for their father. Shortly thereafter, Mikael took his own life, just a month after he turned 54.
