Mike,
I think of you all the time, from the time we first met at Park Ranger Training to celebrating our first season together at Acadia. Who would believe we lived in that old crappy single wide deemed acceptable seasonal housing. My understanding is the NPS condemned them the next year. You were and will always live in my heart and mind as the incredible man that you were. I am honored to say that I knew you and was able to share so many incredible adventures with you. I hope that you are able to rest in peace. Until we meet again I miss you old friend.
