Rest in peace Mike. Your family is in our prayers.Terry Kinder (Alers)
July 30th UPDATE: Mike was vacationing with an employee of his in Vietnam/Thailand when he suffered heart failure, according to the official US Embassy report. He should be on his way home now. Mike's older brother, Pat, has joined Norman in Colorado and memorial/funeral arrangements are still being determined. Norman will keep us informed. Meanwhile, they have expressed much gratitude at receiving our notes (which I have been forwarding) and ask that we keep them coming! View Comments (Posted in the Forums)...
