I was unsurprised when Facebook didn't list him under his various aliases. I knew googling him would just result in a bunch of book results... this tragedy only just now struck me. Myke and I had drifted apart since living a dorm floor apart in college, but he was one of those individuals that was truly, fascinatingly human. <br /><br />Shane, I have seen that goulish individual next to the tree in the cornfield. And I am deeply saddened to know that I will never again see a new work by Myke, and that I missed the remarkable farewell that many of his loved ones and acquaintances made possible as a testament to his presence and character. <br />g=STAR EYEShttp://127.0.0.1noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5145428647370790307.post-13230497053543701302009-02-20T09:56:00.000-06:002009-02-20T09:56:00.000-06:00Mike was my best friend my freshman year of high s...Mike was my best friend my freshman year of high school at Chaminade in Mineola, NY. We would love to joke around and make each other laugh. We shared our love of Nine Inch Nails and even drew the same picture of a goulish looking individual standing next to a big tree in a cornfield. Anyone ever see him draw that?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I am deeply saddened to hear of my friend's passing. I've missed him since 1993 - but am upset I will never be able to begin our friendship again.<BR/><BR/>My thoughts and prayers to his wife and family.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely,<BR/><BR/>Colin McShaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5145428647370790307.post-81403750832825001342008-07-27T20:45:00.000-05:002008-07-27T20:45:00.000-05:00I was friends with Myke during our Design Competit...I was friends with Myke during our Design Competition days at Northwestern and fequently ate Sushi with Myke when I was an Mechanical engineer working at Motorola back in 2002-2004. I switched careers and emailed Myke back and forth a few times, but only recently got all this news. It's devestating.
