Goodbye, Uncle Mike
June 09, 2005 | Category: Family, It's a Trip
My beloved Uncle passed away this morning.
The world is a little dim today, for he was a bright light. Survived by his amazing wife and daughter, family and friends who delighted in his humor and his gentle intelligence, and the thousands of students who considered him a blessing and who worked diligently to be among those he would lead into graduation each year.
He loved life. He loved people. And we loved him.
Farewell to thee! but not farewell
To all my fondest thoughts of thee:
Within my heart they still shall dwell;
And they shall cheer and comfort me.
-Anne Bronte
