Mike Tampa, BHS '69 (1951- 2019)


Michael Stephen Tampa
May 27, 1951 - June 5, 2019 

Mike was born in Burbank CA to Stephen and Margaret Johanneck Tampa. His brothers are Randy BHS 1971, Scott BHS 1972 and Stephen BHS 1974.

Just received this email from Larry O'Brien:
"Mike Tampa passed away on June 5, 2019, from a heart attack in Durango, Colorado. He had been fighting colon cancer and chemo complications."

"Just so sad and scary to be losing our dear friends. Thank you for telling us. Tampa and I used to make each other laugh until tears poured down our faces. We had this routine we would play together, over and over, as chipmunks. He would be Chippy and I was Chippella. He would make these hilarious chipmunk squeaky sounds with his lips. It never got old. Brings tears to my eyes remembering this simple funny little game that brought us so much joy. I can't believe he is gone, nor the others. Just way too soon."

RIP Mike.
