I apologize to Daniella for not seeing her note sooner:
We are holding a Celebrate Mike party on Friday, February 25th at 7 PM at the Overlook Lounge, located 225 East 44th St, between 2nd and 3rd Aves in NYC. You are all welcome, whether you knew Mike "in real life" or only through his blog. A bunch of us will be swapping anecdotes and raising a glass to our friend. This will be night of celebration---because that's what Mike would have wanted us to do. Please join us. I would also appreciate it if you could help spread the word.
Finally, if you would like to make a donation in Mike's name, his parents suggested the March of Dimes. You can click to send a donation here.

Posted by This Fish at February 18, 2005 09:13 AMAs I told H. earlier, I've decided to be impulsive and come up for the celebration. Looking forward to seeing and meeting mutual friends in the city Mike loved and that remains my true home at heart.
Thanks for posting this.
Posted by: Lady Crumpet at February 18, 2005 10:40 AMThanks, Heather. See you next Friday.
And to anyone who may feel like they didn't know Mike "well enough" or "in real life" or whatever, you are truly welcome to come. Mike would want anyone and everyone to feel welcome. That's the kind of guy he was.
Posted by: Daniella at February 18, 2005 05:25 PMI hope you all have a good time celebrating Mike. Imeant to offer my condolences a lot sooner but didn't really know how.
He's lucky to have had friends like you all.
God bless.
Posted by: muffy at February 18, 2005 05:30 PMIf we were wanting to donate, it questions the full name. . . . are we just putting Mike, or is this specifically for the people that KNEW him?
