Hi,

My father was a longtime active member on GMCnet. He recently passed away and requested we post his obituary on the forum. Could you help me with this? Below is the link to his obituary.

Thank you,

Thanks for the relay, Eugene.
Mike will be sorely missed.

Another loss of a really good guy. When we crossed Canada in 2012, we had
scheduled to meet up with Mike, several of our group did in fact get that
distinct pleasure. Judy and I missed that part of the trip and missed
out. So, we planned another meeting on our way back from a European Cruise
in 2015, and Mike was supposed to join us in the Maritimes to share some
poutines in Nova Scotia, but his health took a sudden turn for the worse
and we failed to connect. Our lives are sometimes victims of missed
opportunities. So long, good friend. Enjoy eternity in GMC style.

Mike was one of the first 25 or so that showed up here on GMCnet. He
will definitely be missed!

I never got the chance to meet Mike, but when I first arrived here we had several great conversations by email, with advice, leads (on my search for 'my' coach) and plain good humour & general chewing the fat about coaches & whatever.
Mike, you will be missed.
