To Harriet and your children, I hope Mike went peacefully. Too many high school memories of Mike, Paul Dunnill, Dave Buchanan, Kevin Smith and Terry Clark to mention. Those were great adventures to be sure. Take care Harriet and family.

Mike was one of my most favourite people to be fortunate to know. From our time in hockey to our time in high school , he was always fun loving and a pleasure to be with. I was always envious of his intelligence without effort. A wonderful man that will be missed. Our thoughts are with the family and all that had the pleasure of knowing him. May he rest in peace.
