So very sorry to hear of Michael's passing.

A great man with a wealth of knowledge. He will be sadly missed!
Irreplaceable.

Richard.

Yesterday, as I knew Michael would be formally placed in his final resting place, I thought of and remembered him, and all the many talks we had.
He loved this forum, and was so proud of being part of it.

As I reminisced, I had beside me his book, published in 2005, which he sent to me several years ago, inscribed to me.

It was as if we were talking again.

Actually he will always be here in the monumental corpus of material and knowledge he shared with us.

Vaya con Dios my friend

It is certainly after I had read some posts about matchlock guns from Michael that I decided to become a forum member’s. Many times in PM I asked about his opinion and he always had the kindness to help me more than expected.
I wish that all discussions opened by Michael will go on…
As all the members I will miss him.
