MIKE WAS MY BEST FRIEND FROM OUR AGE 11 . FIRST CIGARETTES , GIRLFRIENDS,MODEL CARS, & MANY DAILY TRIPS TO THE DRUG STORE AND BOWLING ALLEY. I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TELL HIM HOW MUCH HIS FRIENDSHIP MEANT TO ME TWO MONTHS BEFORE HE PASSED IN `80.I MISS HIM AND FONDLY REMEMBER THOSE WONDERFUL TIMES OFTEN. SEE YOU LATER, BUDDY.
