| We were so deeply thankful for all the
  love and support of family, friends, and the larger community who helped us honor
  our son Mike's memory. He had a difficult life, beset by mental illness. The
  services for Mike were held on Sunday, January 12, 2020 at the Congregation Beth Elohim
  in Acton. Massachusetts. He was interred that afternoon day at Beit Olam Cemetery in Wayland, Massachusetts. The weather
  that Sunday was sunny and cloudless, the warmest January day on record in
  Massachusetts history. We and all those who were there to honor Mike's memory
  that day are grateful for such a beautiful, though quite atypical, New
  England winter’s day.  
 Here’s a picture of Mike from happier times, and on the right below are link
  Mike’s Program and Memories.
