Mike was killed in Vietnam in 1969. He was such a good guy. We started first grade together and went through high school together. We were an item when we were in 5th grade!! I still think of him often.

Mike and I were in the same class through elementary school. I lost track of him after that. I didn't know that he went to Heights...As kids, we had played together some, around the neighborhood, in the afternoon after school. I didn't know he died in Nam. Now, all I can say is God bless him, and, like Sylvia said, he was a good kid.
