The Cheltenham Italian Society (C.I.S.) is deeply affected hearing this sad and untimely news.
Mike was an esteemed and much valued supporter of C.I.S., having been one of its notable members for many years. His role on our Committee was I.T. based, as his knowledge in this field was considerable.
Mike was in charge of distributing information on C.I.S. lectures, outings, programmes and special events to all members and friends via a global email systems called Mailchimp, a task which he fulfilled to perfection. Mike also supervised the technical side of the monthly Monday meetings requiring IT input and equipment. His contribution was invaluable and much appreciated.
Thank you Mike, for your enthusiasm in everything you did, for your kindness and for your sense of humour! You will be sorely missed by all at the Cheltenham Italian Society. Rest in Peace dear friend. God Bless you.

To Bev and
