Lee, Mile and Isla. Our thoughts are with you this weekend. I had so many good times with Mike over the years, he was one of my dearest friends. Our time in London flatting together was a blast and you taking me into you home in Auckland while I was looking for a place to live show what big hearts you both have. Love always

Kia ora Lee and family, so sad to hear about Mike. I (Virginia) was fortunate to have a lovely catchup with him at the WOMAD breakfast. Mike was a whirlwind of energy with amazing music knowledge and Warren I enjoyed every encounter with him. He always used to remind me of Tigger, in terms of his boundless enthusiasm for The Most - and life. We are unable to make Saturday's funeral because we'll be out of town, but we will be thinking of you and your Mike. Arohanui, Virginia and Warren

At Richie's party.
