I forgot the fact that Mike and I are fellow Marines.

Mike has been a guest in my home, too. Some years ago, he purchased from me several box loads of CB&Q Mechanical Dept. records on the early Zephyrs that my dad had saved when they were thrown out. While having a couple of drinks, Mike told me how he had served in the Marine Corps. with Ollie North of Iran Contra Fame. An interesting story, to be sure. It's been a long time since I was last in contact with Mike and wasn't aware of his illness. My wife Taffy and I wish him all the best and we pray for a full recovery - Louis

This is terrible news. I think of Mike as a good friend. We owe a lot to him. He was one the earliest members of the BRHS and was editor of the Zephyr for many years. He is a true lover of the Q. My prayers are with him and his family. I remember some good times with him.

Heard today he is pretty bad off and may be moved to hospice soon.
Thanks!
