Dear friends of the festival,
We have lost a part of our LARF family yesterday.
Mike Younger had been a part of the festival many years and in many different capacities. He has also been part of the traveling, performing, singing, and sometimes dancing, pirates "The Bilge Pumps".
He will be missed greatly by the present and past casts of LARF, his friends, and his multiple families.
Mike, may all of you ducks be quacking!
The family and friends of LARF are saddened by the loss of Mike Younger, our cast director, mentor and friend on May 4, 2009. Please send your thoughts and prayers to Mike's family.
Many of you may remember Mike from Hawkwood and from touring with The Bilge Pumps as Kailyn dangnubbit. Mike joined LARF as a cast director in 2005 and very quickly became a good friend to many at LARF.
The Bilge Pumps have invited friends to share Mike stories on their blog at:
