With a heavy heart, I mourn the passing of my dear friend and colleague, Mike Price. Having worked alongside Mike for over two decades, I have come to know him as an exceptional individual, embodying the qualities of compassion, kindness, diligence, and intelligence. Mike's unwavering support and guidance were instrumental in my personal and professional growth, and his presence in our lives will be deeply missed. Mike's problem-solving skills and ability to embrace new technologies were truly remarkable. His dedication to his work and his willingness to share his knowledge were a constant source of inspiration. As we grieve the loss of this extraordinary person, I extend my deepest condolences to Mike's family and friends. Rest in peace, my dear friend. You were a true gem, and your absence will leave a void in our lives that can never be filled.
