John, I don't know if you'll remember me but I lived down the hall from Mike in Baker Hall '61-62. I remember you. Haven't seen Mike in maybe 45 years or so but thought of him from time to time and wondered how he was. I was so sorry to learn this morning that he had passed. My sincere condolences to you and the rest of your family.

Godspeed, Mike. I remember you playing for my mom and dad one time so many years ago; it was a joy to hear and see your wonderful talent.

John - My condolences to you on your brother's passing.

To the Popovich family;

Sincere condolences to you, John, Nancy, and Ann on the death of your brother Michael. May he rest in peace. No one could have been more caring than you were during Michael's long illness. There will be a void in your life, I know, because I have lost a very dear friend and brother 3 months ago.
