To Charlie and the entire Nealis family, I'm so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I'll always remember him as a kind person, quick to offer encouragement, dating back to farm league baseball, where he was the only person who refused to confirm that I wasn't very good. It's a rare person who knows how to be that caring and compassionate, even at such a young age. Mike and all of you will be in my prayers.
