Frank asked me to post this:

Mike - we argued a lot, and you got me steamed up sometimes, hell a lot of times, but you were right more often than not and I admitted it (most times)... I hope whatever part of heaven you land in that:

* there are $1,500 paint jobs
* no numbers match - on anything
* Flight Awards are unheard of
* base motor cars are outlawed.

Sincerely, rest easy and in peace sir!

Geez, I hate to hear that! Hope someone can tell him of the support and thoughts from this group. We're thinking of you, Mike!

If true, it's just crazy how fast life can flip on one's health. Mike was posting here as recently as two weeks ago and now you say he's in hospice. Again, if true, whatever is afflicting Mike has got a hell of a fight on it's hands...Mike's one tough cookie. All the best Mike...prayers abound.

Live well,

Terrible to hear. Met him once at Carlisle, he lived the Corvette experience first hand. Very interesting person to talk to. I wish him well.
