I had the immense pleasure of working closely with Mimi for the better part of 5 years. He was, without a doubt, a one of a kind personality whose passion for the things he loved burned brighter than 1,000 suns. He was highly intelligent, hilariously funny, and had that special gift of making whoever he was talking to feel like the only person in the room. I will never forget the time we spent making music together and I will forever cherish the time I had with him. I can honestly say he made a lasting impact on my life and I am heartbroken to hear of his passing. Rest in peace, old friend.
