He was a mentor and felt like a father to me. And yet, as I write this I am filled with regret and guilt that I had not checked in on my adopted father recently enough to have learned of his passing until I got an email today from his dear friend Felipe Tobias informing me of his passing. I am grief stricken and blind sided by the news, but was glad to read your post about him. If you can find it within your time to email me and help me continue contact with those he knew and loved, I would be ever grateful.<br /><br />With my deepest sympathies and love, <br />Michael WellsMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12423584364936869870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-300532400166356926.post-4980589988803049362013-01-05T14:47:20.033-08:002013-01-05T14:47:20.033-08:00Thanks, Sarah.

May Uncle Mike be hanging in Rivendell, if he so chooses.
