Julie our sincerest condolences to you, your family and Mikes wife.
Without realising, Mike touched alot of hearts within the Australian
& NZ BT Groups.
He emailed us on occasion with advice & words of encouragement.
I never knew which.. was he Australian or was an Ex pat kiwi...
whichever, he was another true battler & inspiration to us all.
Much Love
Linda & Bruce
