Michael Pohlman

I used to play racquetball with Mike before moving away in 1993. He was focused and intense, but always fair and level-headed. Very athletic and very, very hard to beat! I'm saddened to hear of his untimely fate. What a great guy.

It turned into a long distance, life time friendship. Please know that you and your family are in our hearts and prayers.

I attended St. Kevin grade school with Mike. I remember him as a very nice person with a great competitive spirit and athletic ability. My condolences to the Pohlman family on their great loss.

I count him among my best friends. My life and the racquetball community will never be the same. I am lucky to have had the...

I knew Mike back in the early 90's when I worked at The Cyclery, while attending SIUE, which meant setting aside many special orders for him. He was always so upbeat and positve! I am also probably one of thousands he did P.T. on after hours for free. After graduating I stopped in the shop in my brand new Honda Civic. Mike was there so of course had to check out the car, just because he was a car guy and because he knew how excited I was. It was just a Civic, but it just goes to show the...

Mrs. Pohlman and Family:
My deepest condolences and sympathy. I had the wonderful pleasure and opportunity to observer / work with Mike as a PT student and later, as a peer. He shared his knowledge / guidance and enthusiasm for cycling with me as well. He is remembered as a generous, patient and compassionate person. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
