Although separted by many miles, the bond that Michael and I forged while friends and roommates at Middlebury has remained strong and meanininful. Ann and I have fond memories of our visit together for Midd's 45th reunion 5 years ago, when we enjoyed Michael and Alexandra's gracious hospitality. We had a wonderful time together, and were looking forward to doing so again this June for our 50th reunion, where Michael will now be sorely missed. We were shocked and saddened by the news of Michael's passing and extend our heartfelt sympathy to Alexandra and the family. We're sorry that distance separates us at this difficult time, but know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Alan and Ann
