I remember collaborating with Mike on the Yamaha MIE Midi lab prototype at Holy Spirt elementary school. He was very helpful to me and my students. I enjoyed his knowledge and great sense of humor!

Jan;
We just received your Christmas letter and were shocked by the news. Please accept our sincere condolences. Mike was a special caring friend. He was so supportive of our business, even flying from GR to Waukesha for our Grand Opening. Special memories of golf with the two of you at NASMD conventions.
