I worked with Mike at SUNY Tech, first as a director and then assistant dean. He was always a class act. We weren't friends so much as friendly work associates but Esther and I had dinner at least once at Mike's and Joyce's and I remember a trip to New Orleans to deliver a paper together. Joyce went along and we had a great time together. It was devastating to him when his wife and daughter passed away so suddenly but I felt happy when I learned he'd remarried and had a family again. We moved to California in 1992 but I talked to Mike on the phone once --I think on a trip back east in 2010. He was the same sweet guy. He was very well liked at SUNY Tech.
