Mike was such a nice guy. When I first became a lawyer he offered me a lot of valuable advice. We also shared a passion for collecting books about Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Mike will be missed.

Marcia and Dena

I was saddened to learn of Michael's passing. We worked together many years. Mike had a very dry but creative sense of humor. He also had a world of knowledge beyond estate planning. I saw him a couple of years ago and saw that he was struggling physically but was mentally great. So sad to see him pass away so young.
