I worked for Deputy Secretary Stead when Secretary Maurer put together his team in 1985. I remember his passion and commitment to veterans. He will be missed.

My condolences to the family. I am unable to attend the visitation as I will be out of town. My thoughts and prayers will be with the family. I worked with and for Mike for many years. He was dedicated to the Veterans Home, sometimes at the expense of his own personal life and health. I have fond memories of a group of us including Mike doing Karaoke at the Grand Seasons.
