So sorry to hear of my friend Mike's passing. We went to high school together. Even shared a house in Kalamazoo when we were both attending Western Michigan University. I have so many memories of Mike that I don't know where to start. What a character! What fun!

Our best memories of Michael were usually in conversation around the table, or while watching him cook for us. Even though we only got together a few times a year, it was so easy to pick up where we left off. He was such a smart guy, well read and well informed. Our conversations about the world around us would be lively, but he was also genuinely interested in what was happening in our lives. We feel so fortunate to have known Michael and Kim and their family over many decades. Tom and I miss him, and we think of him often.

I just want to say how deeply saddened I am by Michael's passing. I have fond memories of many summer vacations in Grand Haven, and although not as often winter weekends in Nokomis and Venice, Florida.

Sweet Michael! You were smart, loquacious, a hoot, and loved your family. It was wonderful being with you and being a part of your conversations and how you viewed the world. Righteous and gentle and you never abided hate.

We are both so saddened by Michael's passing, especially since he was so full of life! Between summer weekends in Grand Haven and less often, but no less fun, winter get togethers in Venice and Nokomis Beach we all had great times together. Our love to all of you, Beth and Paul
