Anne Marie and Family,
What a fantastic guy. We met you guys at a few USNA reunions – you would not remember me --- but, as a former hardcore ‘bum’ from Long Island --- I connected well with Mike ,,, and the “Jersey guys” during our Plebe summer. He was in 9th Co. – I was in 10th --- we worked a lot together to make it through that 6-month ordeal.
Mike had a great smile, and a wonderful positive out look --- he helped me. He was one of those reliable pillars that I could always trust. Unselfish – big hearted – just a class act dude.
It was an honor to be friends with him.
Best always,
Charlie Mark
CAPT USN (Ret)
USNA ’79 – 10th Co.
