Remembering Mike fondly from the early 60's, and how he and Rob Colbert got me started as a paperboy. Interesting times. My condolences to all.

I didn't stay in touch with Michael since we were in high school, but I have thought of him often over the years--grateful that he kept me from falling asleep in Mr. Unsworth's social studies class by holding my hand, putting on an Elvis look, and quietly singing, "First the tide...rushes in..." We would both laugh and then we would both get in trouble.... Sorry for your loss!
