I believe I graduated with Mike in 1974 from LHS. I absolutely adored his sense of humor. He always made me laugh with his opinions & outlook on life at school. He was my home room buddy. I am in Florida now, but subscribe to the Eagle Gazette and read the obituary. I am sorry as he was very young. I know he will be missed.
