From the distance I send my deepest and sincerest condolences to Mike’s family, in particular Patricia. Sadly I heard about Mike leaving us. Patricia and he welcomed me in their middle when I was coming over to Galway for my studies in his research group They both opened a door for me to connect with Ireland and its great people in a very special way. Furthermore Mike inspired me in my professional and much more in my private life with his curiosity, passion and kindness. He took me for sailing, something that always stayed with me afterwards and always will, such as my love for Ireland and the Irish friends. Thanks a lot Mike, rest in peace. Thanks a lot Patricia and family - I send you love and wish you strength and unity in this sad moment and that sadness and feeling of loss may turn into positive memories of Mike and remembering him and the time with him. With best regards, feeling with you and been close to you in this moment,
— Christopher Stillings
