I e-mailed with Mike's son Mark today. Mike was cremated on Saturday July 25th and wanted his ashes sprinkled in South Africa, which Mark will take care of. No further news for the moment....
My wife is making a commemorative bronze piece to give to Mike's wife. She needs a couple of words to sum up Mike's life, to have engraved. Anyone ?

Mike was also born an Englishman but...
Michael demonstratum est verum spiritus ex Africa
Quite contrary to the old video that used to amuse him no end...
