Cathy: Please know my prayers remain with you and your family. I never met Mickey, but I see by the obituary that his gifts personally and professionally were exemplary. My father was also a pathologist, in the Army Medical Corps way back when. I look forward to seeing you in May at our R-M luncheon I hope!

Perhaps Dr. Hoke's greatest legacy is his wonderful family. I met him only a few times, but went to school with three of his children, MIke, Katie and Susie, examples all of what a fine man their father must have been. I know I speak for my family and we grieve for your loss.

I worked with Mickey for years at the hospital. He could always make my day brighter and I could always count on him for a laugh and loved playing practical jokes on him. He was one of the finest men I have ever known. He did truly love his family and friends. It was a honor to know him.
