Mike, I hope you can read this message. I remember like yesterday our days in the BHS band. Also the time you let me sit in with your band at a high school dance. I really sucked. I regret not reconnecting with you. Let me say, I am celebrating your life. When I go, I will want my friends to remember me and celebrate the good times we had. I will miss you old friend and not ever forget you. This is how Mike signed my high school yearbook "May you live forever and me never die" Mike Bogorae
