MICHAEL SANJENIS

I was deeply saddened to learn of my dear friend Mike's passing. He was certainly one in a million and will be greatly missed.
Together we enjoyed a wonderful friendship sharing our admiration for the United States Navy.
Hearing about his many interesting flight experiences and adventures was always so special to me.
Sending my sincere condolences to his lovely wife Julie and family.
Rest in peace now Lieutenant Mike.
Until we meet again,
Commander Mac

MIguel MIguel. Our special friendship which started at the NYAC 22 years ago when I started my "deep dive" into Cuba and the Dominican Republic. You gave me so much insight and support. Every day I would see you at the NYAC and you lit up as you heard my efforts to speak Spanish with you and listened to my travels. You were nothing but smiles. Your support of the Charles Decker Foundation and the children we help in the Domincian Republic puts you in a special category for me. I will never forget showing you the video I made of your family home in Havana, with the video clip at the end of the school children "Hola Miguel--Come back soon!" and the Compay Segundo sound track.
I flick my lights when I pass the Carrier Intrepid and tell whoever is with me "my special buddy Mike flew off of that" "You are my hero and special friend" Siempre.

In Loving memory of a great Friend. I will miss him greatly. Geraldine and I are thinking of you all at this very sad time...
With Love and Sympathy.
