Michael and I were classmates in Napa, CA, from the 7th grade through high school. His grandfather took us to my very first professional football game when the San Francisco 49ers played at the old Kezar Stadium. We kept track of each other over the years and my wife and I stayed with Mike and his wife in Georgia, on one of our vacations, when he was a deputy warden. During these last few years when Mike had health challenges, he still had a great sense of humor and we would reminisce about our younger days. I can still hear his laugh. I'll miss our calls.
