I was saddened by this news. Seems I only spoke with him months ago. I still remember when I was a kid at Plast Camp playing on an old Farmall tractor that was parked on a hill. Somehow I managed to release the brakes and the tractor started heading downhill straight towards a building. Michael without hesitation sprung into action and with brute force stopped the tractor, probably saving my life. I will miss him. My condolences to his family.

We are saddened by the loss of Mike. Mike was considerate, grateful and a friend to all and we knew him from Church, Ukrainian events and of course, the Ukrainian American Club of Southport, CT of which he was a member in good standing. Rest in peace, Mike, we know you're in Heaven!
