I knew Mike from a long time ago when I was a boy. He and Jackie and Deidre and Jamie were our next door neighbors on a street called Califia Court in San Rafael. Mike was always good to me. He seemed very tolerant of others and was generous. I loved going over to their house to swim in their pool, the only one in the neighborhood in those days. My best to the family.
