To the Koval Family,
I was so sorry to hear that Mike passed away. Because of some current health issues, I was unable to attend the visitation or the funeral. David and I counted Mike and Maria as wonderful friends. I guess it’s the fond memories of the past that helps us all to get through such a great loss.

Hi, my condolences to all of Mike's family at this very difficult time. I have been thinking about Mike and the many years we worked together at NBTel. I started work at NBTel in the Power Engineering Group where Mike worked in 1974 so Mike would have been around 43 at the time. Mike was a very intelligent techy guy and was an expert on Telco power systems and the engineering of them. Mike was well known in the industry across North America.
I can remember several humorous instances of which I will recount a couple.
One was when Mike and I were driving to the Otter Lake Microwave site to complete some engineering work. Mike was driving and any of you who knew Mike would know he could drive pretty fast. Well there is a hairpin turn on this gravel road and as we approached I thought this isn't good. Well we made it but there was a lot of gravel in the ditch as we made that turn.
The second one is about driving as well. It was a real foggy night and all the Power Group were attending the annual Group Lobster Boil in Maces Bay in June.
Well next morning Mike is all wound up, on his way home he missed one of the turns in the road because of the visibility and hit a Barricade with his car. He got it back on the road and limped home with some damage that I am sure Mike repaired.
Always thought a lot of Mike, my thoughts are with you all at this time.

I worked closely with Mike at NBTel. I consider him a mentor as we worked together on a number of utility power, stand-by power and battery power projects. He was always obliging and we worked well together.
