Michael and I worked together and we used to compare hypochondriac diseases, I think I won out when I claimed to have leprosy. He just could not top that. I loved that man.

When I was faced with a difficult decisions, Mike would alway say -"You only have one journey and it should be the best. Don't let anything or anyone take away from your happiness". The statement is marked indelible on my mind and always guides me.
Mike lived that statement everyday. He always choose the right path and did the right thing.
You will forever be in my memories. I miss you Mike!
Having worked with Mike there are many opportunities for the kind of memories that stay with you, but my favorite was not even work related. It was the night Mike, his soon to be partner Jorge, and I spent a night out in Tampa. We were pulled over one block from Mike's place because my license plate still reflected my old car. I, being the driver made sure I was sober (mostly); however the sheer panic from Mike as I was taking the sobriety test was a memory I shall now cherish as I never thought I would. Aside from the laughter, I will remember Mike for being a genuine friend and mentor.
I worked with Mike at Equifax/ Certegy, he was an amazing person and someone I looked up to. He will be missed and us that had the priviledge to have met him are blessed.
