Mark Hayhoe told me about Mike today.I didn’t know him well, having met him in 2013 when I joined the board of Albion Hills Community Farm.
Mike was funny in a wry, delicious kind of way. His most prevalent quality to me was his quiet gentleness. He was one of the good ones and we are less as a result. I guess we have to all try a bit harder to make up for the void he leaves behind. My condolences to his family and friends.

My heart felt sympathy goes out to you Bonnie and the entire O’Hara family on the loss of Mike. It was really hard to fathom what happened to Mike a couple of years ago but this really hit hard. I’ve known Mike since we were very young and thought often of him but have not talked a lot through the years. He always had that boyish grin on his face whenever we met. He will be missed.
REST IN PEACE MIKE
