"It is with a great sadness that we share that one of our notable alumni, Michael Lindsay, passed away on August 31st after a short illness. He is survived by his wife, Linda, his two children, Dylan and Kyra, and his sister, Tully.  A graduate of Our Lady of Good Counsel High School (class of 1981) and Adelphi University (class of 1985), he is known for his work as a stage and screen actor, a comedian, a writer, and especially for his voice-acting work in anime and video games (most prominently as the voice of Kisuke Urahara in Bleach, Kankuro in Naruto,  Joe Kido in Digimon, and Amuro Ray in the first three Mobile Suit Gundam compilation movies). But Mike was perhaps best known as a loving and loyal friend, husband and father, as a passionate artist, and, as many have described him recently, ""the funniest person I have ever met."" Not unlike two of his idols, Jonathan Winters and Robin Williams, he could find the humor in any situation. Even his own pain. He knew the value of laughter, and he used his immense gifts to share it with everyone he touched.  No public funeral or memorial services will be held, but donations may be made to his favorite charity, St. Jude's Hospital for Children (https://www.stjude.org )."
