Mike was a great co-worker and friend to many of us at Thomson Reuters. He was always willing to go the extra mile to help us out. More importantly he was a great guy and always pleasant to have around. We will all miss him.

Mike will be missed by many. He was a great "cousin" to grow up with. Even though we were not truly related he was a part of our family. He is in God's hand now and this is not goodbye, just till we meet again.
