Ann and family, I worked with Mike at Quality Park back in ‘82. He seemed shy but after getting to know him a bit I was impressed by how sweet and kind he was. We lost touch after he left QP but out of the blue, he called me in ‘84 or ‘85. He wanted to tell me he’d met THE ONE and said with any luck, he’d be getting married soon. He’d told me previously he felt adrift for years but when he called that night, he was happy and sounded settled. I read his Dad’s notice back in 2013 and saw you two had 3 daughters and a grandchild at the time and was thrilled. It was a complete fluke that I googled him the other day and found his notice. Heartbreaking. I’m happy you have your daughters and grandchildren nearby (hopefully) but grief is such a personal thing. I will keep you and the rest of Mike’s family in my thoughts and prayers. If not too much to ask, I would love to know what happpened to this sweet soul.

I worked with Mike over the past few years, not closely, but had enough conversations with Mike to know that he was a kind hearted person with a good soul. I enjoyed the interactions that I had with him and I know he will be greatyly missed by many. I\'m so sorry for your loss, he will be remembered well. Zac
