Mike was a very special person who I was privileged to call my friend. I liked and admired him for his depth and sincerity. The more you got to know Mike the more you realized how much more there was to know.

Although Mike and I were classmates at McClatchy, we became friends while taking a creative writing class at Sacramento City College.

Last summer, we and long-time mutual friend, Brann Thomas, had a hilarious time at a Chinese restaurant on Broadway and when we cruised our old Land Park haunts. Our reminiscences seemed to erase the many years since our youth, and our laughter made us feel the way we used to feel, if only for a few hours. I wouldn't give anything for those few hours.

I will always miss you, Mike. My condolences go out to Janet and family.
