We lived too far away for cousins to have contact, but I remember Michael's visit to us in Montreal, probably in the early 1960s. Still, he is missed. Arthur Stampleman

Mike was the gold standard as a managing heir to a creative artists legacy. His custody and care of Ira Gershwin´s gifts gave them new life and enabled a new generation to appreciate what Ira brought to the world. Mike will be missed by all of us who work in the Creative cultural sector.
