I have just learned about Mike Stolzar's passing. Although I had not reached out to him for a few years, I remember his friendliness and humor. I will cherish the many conversations I had with him. Condolences and blessings to his family.

With much regret I just learned that Mike passed away. Although our paths in life drifted apart, we were friends and partners for many years. I will remember him as an outstanding lawyer, a good human being, and a credit to his father with whom I was also acquainted. Rest in peace.
