Michael A. Renshaw Sr.

I am saddened to hear of Mike Renshaw's death.

In my experience, Mike's style as a newspaper Editor-in-Chief, was an appealing blend of tough, strict and discerning, tempered by a hefty dose of fairness.

After relocating to Bucks County, I was working at various weekly newspapers before sending my clips to the Bucks County Courier Times, a local daily Newspaper.

I will never forget my Job Interview with Mike, along with another applicant. I had already been...

Mike Renshaw was a great and beloved friend of our trio, His friendship, his wisdom and his talents were part of what made Peter Paul and Mary "tick". Mike and I were co-organizers of many peace-seeking efforts, appearances and marches and we co-wrote a powerful song of peace "Fair Ireland". The words were all his and I wrote the music and it appeared on one of Peter Paul and Mary's albums.

Mary Travers had no more generous or devoted friend than Mike. He became her editor for the...

Simply the best!!! The world was much, much better with you in it. Thank you for your genuine friendship. I shall miss you.

Meeting Mike Renshaw was one of the nicest things to ever happen to me. He was a very special guy and I totally admired his love of life. For Mike, there was always a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow. He was also quite the magician and I remain in awe at his amazing slight of hand. He was an absolute master and at some point, I gave him the moniker "Mr. Whimsy". I will truly miss Mike, but I take comfort in believing he is smiling down on all of us. Knowing Mike, he would want the...

Very sorry about the loss of Mike. So many stories came full circle around Mike. Like how we ended up working at the same company; how he Initiated an autograph photo sent to my friends Dad from Frank Sinatra, How he hired my brother at the Courier, I even remember being a 12 year old kid sitting on my bike on Valley Rd and watching the production of a scene from Arnolds Wrecking Company. Then more recently at our friends Bob and Deb where every New Years eve he would show me one of his...

Mike may you always rest in peace. You were a strong young man always and through your later years you brought more joy to all of our lives with your humor and straight forwardness. When God decided to take you home he was quick about it but we will treasure every moment we had with you both at home and nevis. Salute!!! We love you Mike Anne and Bud

Jean, We are so sorry for your loss. I think of you often. You & your family are in our thoughts & prayers. xo

Most of my memories of cousin Mike are from when I was a kid going to Gertie and Art's house. Mike was always a cool guy to me and my brothers. We loved getting his and Bernard's old toys. We were the talk of the neighborhood when we got their old English racing bike. My Dad was always proud of his cousin's journalistic accomplishments and especially of his friendship with Peter Yarrow. We will miss you at the cousin's reunion, Mike, but know you'll be there in spirit. I'll make sure...
