The world of fine printing and typecasting has lost one of its true icons. Michael Bixler passed away early September 1, 2024 from complications with ongoing heart issues. Details on a memorial will be announced in the coming days. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Michael's name to the Finger Lakes SPCA of Central New York / Auburn NY.

A tremendous loss. Mike and Winnie are a big reason that I got into casting,  Mike was so kind and supportive.

Here's another great tribute from St. Brigid Press, showing off the Bixler Letterfoundry packaging.
