The face I see to my left is the face I first saw when Michael first hired me in 1993.He was definately a "leader", a "Git-r-done" guy, a business man,a man who could break you or make you!!He taught, we learned. He talked ,we listened.He was, to me a"Good Boss" for 18yrs.There were alot of bad times, but the good ones overcome all the bad. Christmas was his favorite time of the year.Some people will in time forget him, I myself,will always remember the help he gave me!! REST IN PEACE MICHAEL- p.s.> Wonder how long it will take you to dance with Lawerence Welk? Forever in my heart, Moe!!!
