This was either 1964 or 1965. He sure was handsome, hilarious and very kind to me and my family. In 1966 our daughter, Natalie, was born and in 1967 we married. Hard to believe it's been a year since he passed.

My uncle Mike was an amazing adventure, he was always going and getting into something. Always great at starting up a conversation with anyone and bringing out their smile. The exciting journeys he took me and my sister on though Chicago and the sound of the music he made will live on in my heart forever.
