I sat next to Mike in several classes, he was a nice guy. I think he was in Mr Marz’s Homeroom; I remember we all went to the funeral.

Michael, Neil Strom, and Bruce Lustig were a "crew" in Junior High. We golfed, and were immersed in a French card game Mille Bournes that we played on endless summer nights. Michael was funny, extremely intelligent, and an overall incredible "mensch". His illness and death were a shock as no one knew he had Hodgkin's lymphoma. We just saw the aweful effects of therapies, but never understood the cause. Frustrating because now this cancer is nearly always curable. I missed him then and I miss him now.
