So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family during this sad time. I'm sure he is hanging out with my Dad and they are probably having a heck of a time. So sorry that I did not learn of his passing in time to attend his services. He was a really nice guy. I really liked him.

Mr. Gross,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army with the 82nd Airborne "All American" Division. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Airborne All The Way!
