I knew Mike from junior high and high school at Andrew Warde. I will always remember Mike as a quite and good hearted guy with a great laugh. I also remember Mike as a fast runner in junior high school, and was always tough to beat. After graduation in 1969 we loss contact for many years. I was very sorry to hear of Mike´s condition through my brother Ken just a few years ago. And now with Mike´s passing I am very sorry that he is now gone, but he won´t be forgotten. My sincere condolences to the Link family and may Mike now Rest In Peace in Heaven.
