Dear Dee,
We especially remember our happy times with you and Michael in Canada..he was the most enthusiatic fisherman we ever met, and for sure an Honorary Canadian! We will miss his wit, kindness, and intellect. We both hold his memory in our hearts, as we hold you there, also.
Love,
Bob and Linda

Mike was a mentor and friend to me for the past 12 years. I cherish his fantastic stories and amazing wisdom. He has held the position of "smartest man I know" since the day I met him. With his passing we have lost a great mind and an even better example of the kind of person we should be. My heart and prayers go out to his family and everyone who was fortunate enough to have known him.
