A tribute video to professional rock climber Michael Reardon who was swept into the sea in Ireland and unable to escape. (Download this video in high quality here: http://andrewbones.org/download/reardontribute.avi ) I first met Michael during the 2006 Salt Lake City Climb4Life event, something to which he and his wife passionately volunteered their time. He later came to Philadelphia, my hometown, just a few months later. He was the embodiment of mental and physical strength and had the kind of indomitable spirit and colorful personality that made people want to be around him. His passing is truly a great loss and the 2007 event will not be the same without him. Our thoughts are with his wife Marci and daughter Nicki.
