Shocking, indeed. He seemed to be in good health and good spirits at this year's National. RIP.

Wow. I'm floored. He was as integral to the growth of the hobby as anyone.

My heart just dropped to my stomach. Very, very sad to hear this. Mike was a huge supporter of the hobby and of Net54baseball. I will miss him and his speeches at our dinners. Thanks for everything Mike, Rest in Peace my friend.

Mike was one of the group of three that initiated the concept of the NSCC in 1980. RIP Mike.

This is a really depressing thing to hear. Mike seemed like a really passionate guy about cards and I enjoyed hearing his stories at the National dinner.

I wonder what this means for the future of the National Convention?
