IN MEMORIAM - Michael Newcomer 1953-2003
Michael, originally
from Los Altos,
California, was wellknown
as a seasoned
and talented marine
mammal observer. He
logged several
thousand hours
conducting aerial and
shipboard marine
mammal and sea turtle
surveys for a variety of
private and government
agencies in the U.S.
and internationally.
However, Michael was much more than just a great
observer - he was a passionate bibliophile, an
avid ornithologist, and a wonderful friend. Michael was
the kind of person who made the people around him
feel special and valued, and he made life-long friends
wherever the job took him. Michael's "great observer
eyes," beaming smile, and enthusiastic personality will
be sadly missed by anyone who has even momentarily
crossed his path.
