Mike,

I saw a memorial plaque at Mayer Park with your name and photo. I was shocked to see read of your passing. We fell out of touch after high school. I just moved right near your grandparents house. He just popped over today to introduce himself. I’ll be sure to make sure he gets by okay. Keep looking over your family and God Bless you all.
