I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I went to school with Mike and also had worked at IRD. It was a pleasure to work with Mike; he was like by everyone who knew him.
Ken also work with us at the same time, until his passing.
They were true Gentlemen's, kind, friendly and funny.

My prayers and thought are with Mike family.
