collected many close friends along the way and made a foe or two out of the
occasional umpire.

fundraise for Partnership Resources where his sister Colleen attended. He
was a proud N.E. Minneapolis Lion and a volunteer at Catholic Elder Care for
many years. Mick was loved by so many and will be dearly missed.
