Peace be with you my older brother. You are now in the hands of our Elohim. I have fond memories of us growing up together especially at your Bar Mitzvah party where we could drink all the Vernors we wanted. Fortunately your Spirit lives on in your wife Ronda and your son Saul Eric and we can see your loving inluence that they have absorbed through sharing their lives so closely with you. To "Mickey" RIP

We were sorry to learn of Mike's death. My entire family shared many happy hours with Mike at Clipper games over the past 30 years. We gave him rides home to the West Side on many nights back when he was a bachelor. Mike was one of the great Clipper fans and one of the people we really missed when our run as Yankee fans finally came to an end. He will be missed.
