I worked with Mike in the late 90s on the Nation/ World at the San Francisco Chronicle. I was fresh out of college. He was a kind and gentle man. A wonder mentor, teacher and a great inspiration. Thank you, Mike.

I had the privilege of working for Mike when he was a 28-year-old city editor at the Redding Record-Searchlight. Not only was he a fine newspaperman ... he was simply a great guy.
