I prayed that his strong will and characterthat same character and will that kept Mickey alivewould bring him through. Sadly the elements were too much against him. and I now mourn the death of a friend. Mickey was on a mission of humanity. a venture far from unique for him. Many. many times before. Mickey traveled to African villages and refugee camps giving his help and his heart to aid in the effort to feed the people of Ethiopia. He was our Governments and our countrys representative to those suffering in Africa. showing that America does care. Aside from his admirable efforts for those starving in Africa.
