Proud of NJF today.... RIP LAB

[Gerry Zagorski]

Keep these things coming... I'm sure there are a ton more LAB stories to be shared. We can compile them here and give them to the family afterwards.

Here is just one of my LAB stories:

Mike's mind was like a trap door... He remembered every conversation, every post and never forgot a name. He knew and stored up information about everyone he came in contact with. Watching him work the deck of a boat was masterful as he'd jump around the deck stopping to talk to everyone and related on a personal level the things he remembered about you. It was actually quite flattering because while he was using this information to bust your balls, you knew he remembered you. The odds he would post for the PUOSU trip were a perfect example of this.

Me and a bunch of guys from the site had booked a charter trip. We get back to the dock and who is waiting for us?? Mike.

Not only did he pick up on and remember we were going out but as an act of kindness was there to greet us when we got back with "cawfees".

It's these sort of things that made Mike who he was. Epic ball busting with a smattering of unexpected acts of kindness that made you feel special.
