After many years of losing contact with Mitch I now see this. Sad.
I played with Mitch in rock bands, Avalanche and Bullit. He was a super musician and great guy. He had excellent musical creativity and skills.
We lived in Brooklyn in the 1970s . I can close my eyes and still see and hear him. We had many good times and I have a flood of memories. My condolences.

To his family, please accept my most sincere condolences. Mitch was a friend and all around great guy who will be truly missed. I knew Mitch way back when we were in high school and then when he was playing in local bands in Ithaca. Mitch you were always upbeat and a lot of fun to hang out with. I hope your pains have ended and may you rest in the arms of the Lord for eternity.
