So very, very sorry to hear this sad news. I will always remember Mike's warmth, enthusiasm, and wide-ranging knowledge of scholarship and people in our field. Does anyone have Charlene's home address in Worcester so that I can send a condolence card?

Mike was such a mensch--a wonderful mentor, colleague, and friend who shared his knowledge, his great heart, and his love of family with so many of us. He will be missed and remembered with fondness.

I believe Charlene's address is 10 Burgess Rd., Worcester, MA  01609

Like so many of you, I have fond memories of Mike. 

To aid our memories and encourage more reminiscing, here are a few photos of Mike from the Don Dewsbury Still Images collection.
