Kevin, Jeff & Kristen: We will miss Mike so much, but know he is happy to join Bliss. Our family has so many years of fond memories, so much fun together. You are in my thoughts and prayers ...all the way from California. Please stay in touch; I'm still in town as often as possible to be with Mom, who turns 97 in April. She sends her love and sympathy. xoxoPat Bowers Thomas
