I'm so sorry that I didn't know of Mikes passing. We were good friends, at Rock Island Arsenal. He had such a great sense of humor! We laughed every day. I'm sad.

I would like to extend my deepest condolences to Mike's Mother and children. Also to his many family members and friends. I worked with Mike in Iowa City years ago and always enjoyed the many laughs that he provided with his crazy and insane personality. What devastating news to learn of his death at such a young age. I remember always getting after him about the amount of salt he dumped on a bag of popcorn. The last I saw Mike was the day in Muscatine and he had lost the key to his motorcycle. He was walking along the highway looking for it. I never knew if he found it or not but enjoyed our visit. Mike had this way of walking and as I approached him that day I thought" oh my god that's got to be Munger". Sure enough it was and I was glad for the opportunity to visit with him. Rest in Peace Mike!
