Hi Parri,
I am so saddened to hear of the loss of Michael. (You might not remember me! I worked in the dining room at Hadi’s!) Both you and Michael were so good to me and I have thought of you both often through the years. Michael was such a good role model to me. He taught me alot about kindness and generosity of spirit even though I am sure I drove him crazy on a regular basis! He was a sweet, kind man and I am a better person for having known him. I am so sorry. I hope you are doing well and if there is anything I can do please let me know! I live in Victoria and would love to hear from you. Take care, Scott
