I was stunned and saddened to hear of Mike’s passing. Mike was a great friend and mentor as coach of the Village Inn summer baseball teams way back in the summers of 1981 and 1982. My teammates and I loved playing for Mike and those two summers created indelible memories - what could be better than playing baseball for 5 or 6 days a week with a terrific coach and a great group of guys? Mike had a true love for the game and that rubbed off on all of us. Mike always made a point of looking me up at Michigan tailgates in Ann Arbor and I will greatly miss the chance to catch up with him each fall. Please accept my condolences and best wishes.
