Hey Mikey, its been so long since I got to go ride with you but I still remember every day from the day I met you right after you finished probation to all the days I got to act with the rest of the explorers in your in-service mockscenes :) those were some great days and I still remember all the advice you gave me to help me some day have a chance to be one of your partners at LCSO and I'm so thankful for everything you taught me. Just wanted to say thanks Mikey, even though I didn't get to know you very well you had a huge impact on me and I'll never forget that.

I was in Academy class 619 with Mike. For odd reasons I wathced our OC video recently and the one thing I noticed was Mike, there in the background supporting each of us as it was our turn to get that awful fire in our eyes. Mike, I'm glad I had the chance to know you and I hope you rest in peace brother.
