My father-in-law passed away this day.
It is with great sadness I am informing those here of the passing of Don Mickel.
He was a man of numerous achievements, he worked on the Manhattan Project and delivered the bomb to the USS Indianapolis to be delivered to end the scourge of Japanese aggression. He opened Bases in post WWII in Ethiopia and made improvements that bare his name in honor in Japan.
My children loved and respected his work, and enjoyed having a place in his many business ventures and community activities. I know they will miss their Grandfather tremendously, and I am positive they will take the knowledge and ethics he carried his entire life with them in their lives as a model of success.
I hope to meet with you again, in the next life Don.
