This news is absolutely crushing. As many have noted, Mike was one like no other. We have so many wonderful memories of watching (and Greg coaching) the Ladd boys and Bobo boys running up and down the basketball court and football field - Mike always there in positive support. Why do bad things happen to good people? We send our deepest and sincerest hugs, thoughts and prayers to Casey and those Bobo boys.

Dear Casey,
So sorry to hear about Mike from Cassie! You all have been leading a full life and family seems to be doing wonderfully. I regret that I cannot give you a physical hug of condolence and support. I still remember our incidental meeting at Logan airport as well as wonderful times in Dallas. May the Holy Spirit support you in these difficult times. You are a great mother.
Your friend,
Walter Evans, MD.
