Another Friend

Black Forest
We are in Freiburg, Germany visiting with a friend (photo taken in the Black Forest). Mike spent many years volunteering in his professional organization, the Project Management Institute. That organization has 800,000 members in 225 countries. He (and we) made a number of friends there from all over the world. This particular friendship was formed when Mike Chaired the organization's Ethics committee, a role he really enjoyed. When that role eventually ended he almost immediately joined the Kiwanis Club of Roanoke; one door closed and another one opened.
