I will remember Michael by the personal memories we have built together. I still vividly remember the days of barbecues, margaritas, and cigars while swapping stories and laughter. Those moments are forever etched in my heart because they remind me of his warmth and kindness. He was not only my father-in-law through my marriage to his daughter, Heather, but also a close friend and mentor.
