NOVEMBER 2017 FRONTDOORSMEDIA .COM | 5 It is with a heavy heart that we place this note where our beloved editor Mike Saucier’s column should go. As we go to press, Mike is at the end of a very short and difficult battle with cancer. It came on with astonishing quickness and has only taken a matter of weeks. We are doing everything we can to support his wife Fernanda and his daughter Flora during this time. And we will write more about Mike in the coming days and weeks. This past weekend, Tom and I attended the Maricopa Integrated Health Systems ball thanks to our friend and colleague Marcia Scott. She made sure we came to the VIP reception early, where she pulled each MIHS executive and board member over to meet us as the representatives of Frontdoors. One by one, they told us they were reading each issue cover-to-cover, checking out The Knock each week and expressing how impressed they are with the writing and our efforts to expand the publication and the array of stories across the community. So many people directly expressed how much they appreciate Mike and his work. They all asked how they could support us, introduce us to their peers, and what kind of stories we were looking for in the coming months. This was a culmination of Mike's incredible work to build the vision of Frontdoors these past nine months, and we cannot express how grateful we are. It cannot be overstated how much he meant to creating what you see in front of you. We were undeserving of the compliments that were being bestowed upon us, and were wishing Mike could be there to hear them directly...it was truly unbelievable and incredible at the same time. Mike is a consumate professional, a loving husband and father, a faithful son, and a wonderful friend. We hope you will join us in keeping him in your thoughts at this difficult time.
