Those who knew him, either personally or by virtue of receiving help and/or guidance will be saddened to learn that Mike passed away in August of 2020.

 

Didn't know him personally, but his mechanical knowledge and expertise was obvious to all who hang around here. His contributions will be missed.

 

Sad news .... R.I.P.

 

His german wife was helping translate my bad english sometimes back in 2015 in the uk forum. Always will remember him as a kind rotorhead. I am so sorry.

 

Thanks for resolving the mystery for us. May he RIP and dream rotary dreams.

 

sorry to hear this. condolences to his family.

here's hoping that him and Felix and Jim and all other fallen rotary brethren are somewhere having a good time.

 

Very sorry to hear this, as Mike was always helpful and amazingly knowledgeable with how he explained problems, test procedures, and solutions. I'll miss how well he could explain the way to swap parts, test for certain problems, and always got back to people to help them get to a resolution.

He will surely be missed, and I know those who look back through his posts will see the depth of knowledge we've lost with his passing.

He maintained his sense of humor right up to the end.
