I was so sorry to hear about Mike's passing. I had the pleasure of knowing Mike at Catalpa Manor and at Harborside of New Lebanon. He was very special and I will never forget him.

Michael, Michael: I had wondered why I did not hear from you at Christmas as I have for....geez, 17 years. You were one to never forget with your thoughtfulness. The beautiful jewelery, the videos for my children. Every xmas my children asked if I had heard from you. I know you are at peace but know you touched many lives while here on this earth.
