"Thank You" Mike and Judy for welcoming us into your lives. Countless memories of Saturday nights spent laughing at the SNL crew, including Mike's favorite, Gilda Radner. In addition, the New Year's Eve parties where Mike would pull us and others out onto the dance floor every time "The Loco-Motion" was played. We were fortunate to know you Mike, say "Hello" to Roseanne Roseannadanna for us. Your Friends, Keith and Laura Rosenau
