Mike was truly a gentleman sailor. He was a well-respected member of the PHRF-LE committee for many years. He became a good friend and will be missed.

Mike's high standards intellect are already missed by everyone who knows him or had the benefit of his work. He graciously, generously gave his time and talents to sailors new and experienced, young and old.
It is an honor to have known someone as outstanding as Mike.
Farewell friend; your sails are set beneath the never ending sky.
