Mike isn't a relative. A number of years ago I produced/shot a TV show called ''MY 20TH Century''. People would send old film to us and Mike was one of them. When I looked at his 16mm footage I had to hold it for a Christmas Special. He hadn't seen the footage in years so after I had the footage transferred I sent him a DVD. He told us wonderful stories of that Christmas and even showed us his ''Teddy''. We found the original house that still stands in the South Bay. A young couple own it now. I gave them a copy of the finished show and they loved seeing the house when it was new. We have lots of other footage from Mikes films including a trip to Reno that is the opening shot of the cabforward. I don't know if he's still with us but sure hope so. A wonderful man. I think an uncle shot the film and sure am glad Mike saved it. Don
