Thanks to Don Shelley for research on those from our gradution class who have passed on.
Michael was a good friend of mine. We used to hang out at his big house on the west side of town. He taught me how to do the disco and we thought that the Bee Gees were so hip. Michael let me practice my one inch punch in the cafeteria lunch line. Once I punched him so hard that he passed out. He towered me with his 6'3" frame. What a gentle giant Michael was. I feel so forlorn for not seeing him again. I miss him dearly. -Nha Nguyen
