He worked in the financial institutions group at Macquarie Capital as senior director. Previously he held senior positions at FBR Capital, CIBC Capital, Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan. Mike was chairman of the board of Merchants Bank of Rugby, North Dakota, established by his great-grandfather in 1897. Before freshman week was out Mike had become one of the best-known and best-liked members of our class. Mike served as class president, head agent, reunion giving chair and president of the Association of Alumni. He was largely responsible for the large checks delivered to College presidents at reunion. The College recognized Mike by inducting him into the Stephen F. Mandel ’52 Society. An avid skier, biker and golfer, Mike recently completed his first Olympic-length triathlon. We most remember Mike for being a devoted husband, wonderful father and sincere and loyal friend. He was always available to give good advice, a hug or a compassionate ear. Mike spent a lifetime giving to others; we miss him.
