Dad at America's Cup 2013 in San Francisco

Mike was a great guy, always made me laugh or I made him laugh, it was a give and take. I didn't know his wife, met him after her passing but my late husband, Bill, and I became good friends when Mike met Cecilia (Cece). We had great fun together, especially our trip to Costa Rica as well as many other outings. I will miss him so much! Mike and his family are in my prayers. Connie Engler

Mike was a very special person. His kindness and generosity touched our family in so many ways that have produced very lasting memories for us all. Cloud Nine is sailing somewhere on divine waters, The Vincent C. Belmonte Family

Dear Sian and Emma,

This news was a sad surprise and I'm so sorry for you both. The Gowans were our next door neighbors (we were the house on the corner) and we remained close friends with your grandparents until they died.

Your Mom and he were an adorable couple, two of the cutest people ever! I helped write their wedding...
