Michael. Mark and I shared some memorable times with you. Decorating our place for various occasions, movies, playing with the cats... We also loved seeing you in your element at the Pantages on opening nights, going to the movies, shopping at Strouds at The Beverly Connection for the latest bedding, curtains, etc. I wished you could have taught me a few skating moves! We really miss and love you dear Michael!

I met Michael back in summer 1980 at the Sky Rink in New York while he was going through a hard time transitioning from amateur to professional. Sadly I had to go back to Venezuela where I'm from. I will always remember him gliding and jumping wonderfully on the ice. I know how much he cherished the pics I took from him. Wish he could have known that I finally made it and now I'm an American citizen living in Florida. Eugenio Mikolji
