Quoted from DreamTR:If it was not for Mike and his father the majority of the stuff we learned from his work on pinball and acquiring the many machines we have and knowledge would not be a reality and we would not be able to have as many games for play at Game Galaxy without him.
He has shopped out my White Water, Addams Family, Theatre of Magic, No Fear (since sold, but still local), Indiana Jones, and fixed numerous others, including his infamous "throw them in the lake" games if he can't fix them or they are taking up the room in his garage. I have known Mike for many many years and I speak to his father who helps with our stuff at least twice a week. I can't even imagine losing a child and I hope his parents can make it through this traumatic time.
Very sad day today. He will be greatly missed. If you wanted the best, Mike Chestnut was the best in refurbishing pinball machines. We were very lucky to have him in Tennessee.
