The last time Anita and I saw Michael was at Cooperstown, NY in the Summer of 2007. We were so delighted that the Mehlmans were able to join us for a happy occasion. Although we were separated by a great distance, Michael was always in our thoughts. In his courageous struggle he gave so much inspiration to his family, friends and students. Now we won't be able to see Anita's "baby" cousin any more, but we'll remember him with love, always.

his family very much. I am saddened by
his death & my thoughts are of Joan,
Ross, Daniel and all his family at this
difficult time.
