This is so sad. Zazzles was always so helpful and I enjoyed the way he would analyze thing. I am a member on another board where a long time contributor also died of a heart attack and it was such a shock to everyone. I remember thinking how people in his not online life probably had no idea how valuable he had been for so many people. I feel the same way about Zazzles. Most likely people who knew him have no idea how helpful he has been to so many of us.

Mike was a friend and inspiration to all of us. This is so heartbreaking. Rest in peace dear friend.

I think they would appreciate knowing and it may help us. I feel helpless and very sad today.

Mike was the one who recommended Marlene Koch cookbooks, so I always think of him when I use her recipe. And he posted the best scone recipe as well as many others. His computer knowledge was vast. And he explained things so well. I wished I could have made it to San Jose to meet up with him. We chatted about many places we had been to. DebDoesWW, itsrad, thank you for being us the news. And to all others, I feel your sadness.

Jennifer I don't believe Mike has any immediate family left. I wanted to add. It appears someone is going through and taking care of Mike's affairs. Mike most likely left this page up for easy access and so it is showing him "online" at various times.

Do you know if there is any online obituary DebDoesWW or a link to a funeral home? When a frequent, helpful poster died on another forum I am on, some members went and posted comments on the funeral home guest book.

Kitty there isn't any. 😞 His neighbor has posted that there will be a Celebration of Life ceremony in mid-March for him, per Mike's request. If anyone is in Central/Northern CA and would like to attend I will get further information when it becomes available.
