Our whole family is saddened by the passing of Mike. Our friendship goes back a long way, to the day Mike arrived at my home in England on June 19, 1943. That was the day Fred (Salikin) and I were to be married. Mike was in the army and whenever he had a leave, he stayed with my family in England. My mother treated Mike like her own son. He became just one of the family. She always referred to him as "little Mikey". I am happy that our friendship continued from our first meeting on my wedding day in England through all these year. We always had such enjoyable visit when our paths crossed.
