My deepest sympathy to you all.  Michael always had a big hug for me and would make me smile and laugh.  We both were born on April 19th and I enjoyed a birthday greeting from him each year on Facebook and I enjoyed writing him too.  Gone too soon.  The brotherhood of Delta Sigma Phi has lost another brother way too soon.
