Mike was the head of the xray dept.during my student years at Doctors'Hospital (1970-1972). He was tough as well a teddy bear. Mike was always fair to his students and would lend a hand when help was needed. He was a person you respected and didn't want to disappoint.
I think it speaks for itself when a student, after 38 years, still has such fond memories of their instructor.
My condolences to the entire family.
Sincerely; Cheri Austin ( Jochims )

Chief Chobanion guided me through my first few months at the Naval reserve center,and then on to the regular Navy. That was back in 1963, and I never forgot him. Anchors Aweigh,Chief.
