OMG Wendy I just heard of Bo's passing. I am so sorry. He was a GREAT guy who was full of life. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work with him at Paramount.

I was privileged to accompany Mike through his four years at SAINTS and beyond. Mike loved people. He looked out for the underdog, affirmed the talented, spoke truth to power, laughed from his toes up and had a heart as big as he was! I'll miss you, Mike. My prayer goes out to both of Mike's families; Rhode Island and Florida.

Already two phone calls first thing this morning about Mike's passing. Shared some funny "Bo" stories. Great guy who I'm sure will be sorely missed.
