Retiring in 1985, found Malcolm and Marie enjoying life on lake Tippecanoe, Leesburg, IN. Mick’s active lifestyle included bowling, freshwater fishing, hunting, card playing, wood working, and golf. However, if the weather brought a little sunshine and a good breeze you could bet he would be found on the water sailing Lake Tippecanoe.
