I was touched when Mikey came to my mother's funeral. It meant a great deal to me that he did so. It brought back so many memories, and was so kind that he remembered my mom. I thought about contacting him since, but, as often happens, I put if off, believing there was time to do so. He will always have a warm place in my thoughts...
