Mike was such a wonderful colleague at Bryant. He was always smiling. And I admired him for so many qualities. He was softspoken, but with a great deal of important and intelligent things to say. He was a wonderful, compassionate listener and gave such good advice. He was dedicated to his teaching and his students. And most significant, he talked often of his family .. whom he loved so much and who made him very proud. A good man, a very good man has left us.... and your loss of your husband and Dad is profound. My prayers are with you all.
