So sorry to hear about Mike. I knew Mike from the hospital and our seats were next to his at the Elder games. I will miss smiles and his high fives during the games. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I've coached many hundreds of kids in my life and dealt with many great parents. Mike was one of the best. He was always concerned about the well being of all the kids and willing to offer his expertise whenever needed. I always enjoyed my conversations with him. Young Mike, you can be sure your Pop thought the world of you and was always very proud of you. May you rest in peace my friend.
