Mike has been one of our best friends, we felt him very close even if between us there was an ocean. He will have a special place in our memory. With love, as always. Giuseppe and Tommaso

Mike was a warm, genuinely nice, and very smart man. When I began my work at the Kentucky Cabinet for Families and Children, he sought me out to show me the ropes - it was a political environment and I was a professor. He was a dear friend who answered so many of my questions, always with a sense of humor and warmth. He rented a room in our home in Northern Kentucky while working there after he left the Cabinet and we shared a few meals. My husband - Herb - remembers Mike with great fondness. He and the girls also visited us in St. Louis to tour Washington University and they were some of the nicest guests we every had. I read his book with great pleasure and pride. He will be very much missed.

Mike was a delightful and unique individual. As Secretary of the Cabinet while he was in state government, I worked closely with Mike and admired his many journalistic gifts but ever more his dry wit and ability to find a little light in even dark places. He was admired and respected by everyone who knew him. My deepest sympathy to all who knew and loved him.
