Michael and I were really good friends growing up, and he was a great soccer player. We went separate ways later in high school, but always remained friends. I'm still very close friends with his sister and her husband, and the rest of the family. Mike is always a topic of discussion at BBQ's, cause he was always getting into trouble. Good man, and missed by many.
