David Soong wrote a sympathy message

“I remember Mike as a friend, inspiring colleague, and a trusting supervisor. Mike was thorough, patient, and enthusiastic when discussing results with us. Oftentimes his suggestions made us felt encouraged to challenge the work further. The picture was taken at HuKou Waterfalls in China, after the 1st Sino-US Workshop on Sediment Transport and Disaster in Beijing, 1999.”
