Mike was a good friend of mine in High School and College. We graduated from College together in 1966 and went our seperate ways. Mike joined the Marines and served in Viet Nam.

He returned to raise a family and pursue his career as Engineer for several companies. He had settled in Alabama and happy working at Nucor Steel. He met with a trajic car accident in 2007 and was left paralyzed until his death in March 2011. It was not just a common car wreck... a young man had run him off the road in an attempt to rob him.

For those of you interested here is a link describing his accident

I'm sure Mike would have loved to attend our reunion.

Lets not forget all our classmates and friends who couldn' make the reunion for whatever reason.
