Mike, what to say… Our paths tangled yet separated irreparably decades ago for what seems trivial today. We were kids, what did we know? I’ll live the regret of not reconciling until we meet again. Your memory lives on Cozimoto. RIP
My deepest condolences to his surviving brother and sister Greg and Teri.

I’m so sad to hear of Mike’s passing. Everyone liked Mike. He was a wonderful, kind and cheerful friend of mine at the EPA. Always willing to help and share about life outside of work. He will be dearly missed.
You have my deepest condolences and prayers.

Michael James, my gregarious little brother from another mother.
I’d find Mike & Chris working on a car in Mom & Dads driveway. Or their younger versions scheming with some mad fireworks for the weekend.
At the time Mike and I both worked in Wash DC, we’d spend our lunch time at the National Museums. Mike was the most entertaining museum tour guide.
Mike was smart, talented and always surging forward.
Mike, my friend, We love you and will miss you. Thank you for being a part of our lives and for the cardinals you sent. Now kick back, relax on a puffy cloud while God’s peace envelopes you and you wait on the rest of us.
