I had the pleasure of working with Michael at Boston Scientific. He was the perennial inventor with a penchant for creativity. His "wall of patents" at BSC is stuff of legend. But more importantly, it is a reminder of his many contributions to Boston Scientific and the many patients his products serve. That is a legacy to be proud of! My sincere condolences to the family.

I worked with Mike for over 18 years. His "Wall of Patents" was a testament to his skills and creativity. His designs helped provide improve countless patients lives. Like a hound dog, Mike had an uncanny ability to know when meeting involving food was ending, and let the others know it was time for swooping in :-). I cannot remember a day where he wasn't wearing a smile. He will be missed.
