I will always remember Mike as being a kind knowledgeable & compassionate Antiques Dealer . In a competitive industry he was very generous person with his knowledge . The bond he had with his wife Sue was one of old-fashioned strength . I remember competing with them both at many Auctions at Dunbar Sloane in the early 90's . My thoughts to Sue & family . Pete Colvin . Past Possessions .

It´s been an honour to call Mike a true friend of so many years we´ve shared travel work & pleasure over the years he is a true legend of the old school they don´t make them like that anymore ? We will miss his humour & far fetched story´s what a wonderful life we´ve all shared & he´s left behind a beautiful wife & family. Rest in peace our dear friend.
