Invitation from Mary Ann Humfreville this Saturday, Feb. 10


Kevin, Mike and Mary Ann would like you to join them in celebrating Michael's life. As you know, he passed away on 11/5/06 in his beloved Baja and was buried in the Bahia de Los Angeles cemetary.

We all know what a great storyteller Michael was. Now it's your turn to come forward and share your stories, anecdotes and pictures.

This great gathering of amigos will be held on Feb. 10 at 2 p.m. at Barsam and Marlene Diradoorian's home at 438 W. Kenneth Road, Glendale, CA 91202. Please R.S.V.P. Mary Ann at mahumfreville@hotmail.com with the number of people coming. We hope to see Nomad's represented well.

I will be there

Wow!! Great photo, he really looks like what Baja is all about. Just arrived in Bahis and will visit his final resting place on the 10th - with an update and photo.
Bahia is a fantastic place. Really love it here - currently at Daggetts.
Hope everyone has a wonderful time at the scheduled reunion.

What about Georock is she coming? I know she's about to become a grandmother so perhaps she can't get away.

Marla, go to the search on Nomad, type in 'essay question' by Packoderm... How to post (and reduce the size of photos) to Nomad.

Otherwise, email it to me and I will resize it for you...

I haven't heard from GeoRock... See you Saturday...

It was very nice to see so many people there yesterday... Photos of Mike were everywhere... Mary Ann and the boys were surrounded by friends and family.

Many Nomads attended... It was a nice day for thinking about Mike and his life made richer by the friends he made...

Mike's Resting Place


Some Nomads have asked and Mary Ann told me it was okay to share this photo I took when we visited Mike's grave last November.... A head stone will be added after one year.

Mike is in the village cemetery with a beautiful view of the bay, he loved so much...
