Sad to hear about Mike's passing.  I worked for Mike in the mid-80's and  gained a great deal of knowledge about business and leadership from Mike.  Mike truly understood and enjoyed the "politics" of business.  
My condolences to Barbara, Rick, Susan and Karen as well as their families.

Karen, Susan and family,   So sorry for your loss.   My deepest condolences.   My thoughts and prayers are with you all. 

Dear Barb & Family. 
I just learned from a mutual friend that Mike had passed away, so very very sorry Barbara. 
Mike and I, as you know go back many years and he promoted me to Management at Newfoundland  Tel it seems like yesterday.  He was a great guy and the best boss I ever had. Keep strong for your wonderful family, and God bless you.

Dear Hollihan family.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Mike years ago through some mutual friends--Neil Black and Debbie Findley.

I am sorry about your loss.Please accept my sympathies.

Sincerely,Sean Layden (Dartmouth).

The Hollihan Family 
So sorry for your loss,  My fond memories of Mike go back to his Nortel and my Newfoundland Tel days. 
We did a lot of business and he was a super sales Manager. Mike travelled first class and shortly after a big equipment and cable sale he invited Senior managers from Atlantic Canada (Bell Aliant now) to a Grey Cup game in Montreal, It was a fantastic trip via Nortel's LearJet and I remember Mike's hospitality as if it was yesterday. That was 1978. I hope your fond  memories of your Husband, your Dad or your Granddad ease the pain and sorrow. 
Sincerely 
BREN FAHEY 

From our first meeting in the mid-90s to found AIANS, Mike was always a wise and quiet leader filled with passion for Nova Scotia and constantly promoting our aerospace & defence industry.  I will always remember his infectious smile, his tours of DEFSEC and his kind words towards all.  We have lost a true friend.  A rum, or two, will be hoisted in his honour at the Mess.  Condolences to Barb, Rick and family.
David & Sarah

Our sincere condolences to Barb and family. I will always be indebted to Mike for taking me under his wing when I first arrived in Nova Scotia. He had vision, wisdom and compassion. I will never forget him and always remain grateful for knowing him.
