Louise-:) I am both shocked, and deeply saddened to hear about Mikes passing. About two weeks ago today on a Friday afternoon I was on my way home from Aurora, Ont., and stopped in and rang the doorbell. Because both vehicles were in the drive, I simply figured that you & Mike were out for a walk!! As you know I met Mike upon my employment at GM Feb. 21-1977. He was group leader in the area I was placed. Although only there for a duration of about 5 years, Mike & I developed a deep friendship that spanned all of those years to date. He graciously made me feel entirely "at ease" in an environment that I was most certainly not used to! (The jungle line A-Body) plant. Mike & I instantly became great friends. Later on following my departure from GM, Mike and stayed in touch. He was always cheery and full of zest for life. Every single time we would cross paths, we would simply carry on where we left off. It was a huge "highlight" for me to drop in and visit with Mike on each and every occasion. I will miss him greatly! Louise, you have surely lost a wonderful loving man, and the rest of us have lost a very dear and compassionate friend! Jane & I wish to extend our Deepest sympathy and prayers to you at such a time as this.
