Fathers Day dinner 2019. We always enjoyed going out for a good meal and discussing how we would fix the problems of the world. Mike always had some great ideas. Still in shock--we can't believe that we won't see him walking thru the Tahoe clubhouse door. Rest in peace Mike next to Allison the love of your life.

Mike was a friend to me. He cared about everyone. I loved working with him regarding the Tahoe pool. You are truly missed. I will never forget you. Pat Berk
