It was my first year at White Pines when I had to take a group out to catch the bus, Cameron Shelton being one of them. Cameron was doing something he wasn’t supposed to and I told him to stop. He looked at me with all the cockiness a ten year old could muster and said, “do you know who my dad is?” I didn’t know Mike very well then, but now I do, and I will tell you that there is a hole that will not be easily filled at White Pines.
P.S. Cameron I never told on you😊

Mike changed my life. He took a chance on hiring an older applicant for a 7th grade position teaching science at White Pines Middle School. This was his 1st year as principal and I was his 1st hire; about 50 years old at the time. He was always encouraging, affirming, and I loved to sit down with him and discuss the big picture of education. He was very easy to talk to and always had a positive outlook on life. I remember he came to my father's funeral and was extremely comfortable talking with people he did not even know. His influence will be greatly missed.
