    Alas and alack, after cleaning out the storage area to check on my supply of his wonderful cleaner, found this obituary. It saddens me to think that I inadvertently ignored it, not intentionally, for sure. Mr. Mish always had a supply of the cleaner and I am ever grateful that I had secured several bottles, as gifts as well as for my own use.
    May he always rest in peace.
