Yesterday my Uncle Mike went to a ballgame with Uncle Joe --- they were having a blast. At one point, however, Mike turned to Joe and said "I feel like I"m going to faint." and he did. The paramedics were unable to revive him. He died at 68 -- he lived his life with such joy and love and FUN. Right down to the final buzzer. I will be one of the many who will miss him.

Maybe all of life's promises don't come true, but mornings still come and hopes, like sparrows, still sing in the trees. ~Flavia
I did not know Mike Rems. I spoke to him once on the phone. I told him that I was one of the last people stationed at Estaca de Bares and that I had started a web page dedicated to Estaca. He told me that he was planning a journey later in the year through Portugal up to Viveiro. A few days later he sent me some photos that he wanted to add to my web site. I am truly saddened by his passing. You can see the photos he sent me at http://estaca.net/rems1.html My heart goes out to his family. Sincerely, Rob Putman rob@estaca.net www.estaca.net
