Michael, Has it occurred to you that it was more than 20 years ago that you were in my MBA Economics class? That makes us both old guys. Thinking about you my friend. Reuben

Thank you Anna. I am also struggling to find the right words. I had so many great times with Michael, learned so much from him, and marveled at how he enjoys everything (mostly you kids). What a lovely and special person.

Thanks so much for the update, Anna. I am glad he is with family and can be comfortable. Love to him and you all.

Thank you for this update Anna. I've been thinking about your dad for weeks now, literally every day. He is so lucky to have you guys caring for him, and to be in such a comfortable space. Sending you all the positive energy from over here. xo

Anna, We are thinking of the family and especially Mike. We shared so many special times together, most of all our trip to Europe in college. Mike is a very special person and friend. My thoughts are with you and family. I sent in a small donation. Ed

Anna sending you our prayers from across the miles

Thank you for sharing this update Anna. I had a similar set up with my mom, and know how hard but full of grace the work is. Please tell Mike that his Walsh classmates have him in always in our thoughts and all of you in our prayers

Thank you for the update! Prayers continue for each of you! Love you all!

In the late 90s and through 2015 I was at times a contract employee and then a real employee. Michael handled my sometimes complicated employment status with charm and great patience. I really appreciated his role while I worked at TACIR and hope I told him that while there.

Anna thank you for the update . I have been in contact with your Aunt Barb who has been super keeping the Meiers cousins updated. Please know you and your families are in our daily thoughts and prayers. Please give your dad a hug and kiss from me! My love to you your siblings and your families! Your Grandfather Maynard was my mother‘s twin brother.

Michael (aka Miguel Tormé), thanks for the thousands and thousands of hours of ukulele playing we’ve shared over the past twenty plus years. What a wild ride we’ve had with The Ukedelics! It’s pretty amazing when you think about all of the places we’ve performed and the people we’ve met over the years. I’ve always enjoyed watching you play the uke (and guitar). You make it look so effortless and easy, but I know those chord melodies can be pretty dang tricky. And speaking of chord melodies, thanks for teaching me to play the “Timme Guitar Method” of chord melody jazz guitar. I may have been a lousy student, but it was always fun hanging out with you. My guitar playing may not have been all that great, but the wine was always good. By the way, I haven’t completely given up on the jazz chord melody stuff, but it has been relegated to “back burner” status. Interestingly enough, a lot of what you taught me on guitar also works on the ukulele. So that’s worth a double thanks! Whether I’ve been struggling with a family conundrum, or with work or life related issues, you have always had some bit of positive, supportive and constructive advice to share. That has been greatly appreciated. Big, big thank you for that. I’ve mentioned this before, but I wanted to say it again; you (and the rest of The Ukedelics) are like a little extended family to me. And I’ve always thought of you like a big brother (but the nice kind, not the kind that beats you up and makes you thank him for the privilege). You are a friend, bandmate, and brother. I love you Michael. Cheers!
