Airmail to Heaven
Dear Dr. Cohen:
Your passing has been two days short of a year and (I wanted to let you know) we still have been unable to find a physician replacement for you. Since Heaven doesn't need your doctor talents, we hope you are having fun but wanted to let you know how much we still miss you—not just from a physician perspective but such a kind, gentle and funny man.

I just got a letter today informing me that Dr. Cohen had passed away. I had an appointment with him only four days before his death. I am deeply saddened. He was my doctor for a few years before I lost him with a change in my insurance. I was finally able to get him back last year after waiting for him to accept additional patients once again. I was elated when I could return to him. I am going to miss him greatly. He was the kindest and most fun doctor I have ever had.

What can one say when a great person and doctor, like Dr. Cohen—a true family man, with an amazing sense of humor; leaves us all way too soon? When my daughter and I went for an appointment last Friday and heard the news, we were beyond devastated. When I relayed Dr. Cohen’s passing to my husband and son—they too were shocked [my son said, “You don’t mean the funny guy, do you?”]. Dr. Cohen has been our family’s doctor for [at least] ten years—only once was he ever late for an appointment and that was when one of his kids called the office, to say one of their dogs had eaten one of their guinea pigs. Dr. Cohen ran home for a few minutes to console his children—that is just one example of the type of devotion he had for his family and his dedication to the community. We will really miss his gentle care and [always] smiling face.

Dear Doctor Cohen. I always recomended you to all my friends. I would tell them that you were a good doctor and a funny doctor! The last time I went to your office I had allergies. I told you that I had cleaned the house thoroughly and got bad with the detergents I used...When you came back to give me the prescription, you also handed me a letter that reads, "This is to certify that Maria F. Candelario is under my care, in order to avoid agravation to her condition, I recomend that she be excused from all work activity starting 02/21/2011 until 02/21 2021... No cleaning forever....My deepest condolences to you wife and children...How will I ever replace you?

Dear Cohen family--I can't express the shock and sadness my family and I felt upon learning of Dr. Cohens passing when I called today to confirm my appointment.I will miss him as he was a great friend as well as "doc". We will never find another like him. May God Bless and comfort all of you in the days and weeks ahead.

My husband just called me with the sad news of Dr. Cohen's passing. We both were his patients and I was just giving him a hard time about moving his practice to Keller that it was too far and he needed to stay in Grapevine!! We are praying for his family and we will miss him very much.

I am so sad to hear the loss of Dr Cohen to his children, wife, extended family and all his patients. I have been a patient of his for several years and will miss the confidence I have had in a physician as I have had with Dr Cohen. He was a good person, kind heart and very intuitive in his understanding of medicine. He took care of me and my children's families.
As Dr Cohen took care of so many here in this life, God will now care for him. We are truly saddened for all......

Lord, he was a keeper. I just now learned of Dr. Cohen's passing when I phoned his office to get my blood test results from last month. I think he was the nicest doctor I ever had. A real mensch. I am so, so sad. I pray for his family's comfort.

It is with a heavy heart that we send our prayers and love to Dr. Cohen's family. The news of his passing has saddened us greatly. He was a wonderful man and a terrific doctor. I have never had a physician who was as considerate, kind, and caring as Dr. Cohen.
When we moved our family to Michigan, one of my greatest concerns was trying to find a physician like Dr. Cohen. My search still continues and with all my heart I know that he can NEVER be replaced. He was a kind soul and will be missed greatly.
Karen, please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your children. May God bless and keep you always.

I met Dr. Cohen by chance... just lucked out when choosing a doc who was listed on my medical insurance. As his patient, he always made me feel like he had all the time in the world to listen to my concerns and answer my questions. Although we didn't socialize personally, running into him away from the office was like seeing an old friend. The last time I saw him was in Kohl's Dept Store. After saying hello, we went about our shopping... but that funny, mischievous man kept popping up from time to time to toss random items into my shopping basket. With a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his face, he'd say, "He'll love this!" and as he trotted away I found the silky boxer shorts (or ugly tie, slippers, etc) that he'd added to my basket. I am really going to miss him.

March 9, 2011
Dr. Cohen was a wonderful Dr. to know. When he used to come onto the 5th floor at Harris HEB we all just loved him. He was kind and easy to talk to about any problem. He would get us to laugh about something and lighten up the place. Several of us nurses became his pts. I will miss him.

I am just heart broken at the news that our precious Dr. Cohen has passed away. I just had to take a moment to write and tell you what he meant to me. I got to know Dr. Mike when my father was his patient in the early 2000s and after Daddy passed I started seeing him myself as my primary doctor. Doctor Mike always had a big smile on his face and he made you feel as though he was your best friend. Over the years I have gotten to know his staff and adore each one of you. I even feel as though I know his children because of the way he talked about them and how much he loved them. Karen, I haven't seen you in a while but I hope you know how much I care and wish I was there to give you a big hug. My love and prayers are with you,
March 8, 2011
I just started going to Dr.Cohen about two years ago and was totally impressed with his knowledge but most of all his sense of humor. He was always in a good mood and if you had questions he would listen to them and answer all of them for you. I did not hear of his passing until today March 8,when I called his new office and was told of his sudden death. My heart and prayers go out to the family. May God bless him and his family,

From teasing Michael about his receding hairline in 2nd, yes, say it, 2nd grade, to watching in disbelief while he had the 6th grade assistant principal running around the cafeteria getting him milk & cookies in exchange for Bruins tickets, to SHS graduation and packing up our meager possessions and carting them off to UMass for our stint as dorm roommates and later housemates; I can track stages of the first half of my life to good times spent with Cohey. The biggest laughs, the most memorable moments I'd ever known...truly some of the very best times of my life were those times spent hangin'. His passing now generates one of the saddest times of my life and leaves a void that can never be completely filled. Perhaps all those wonderful memories can go some way toward offsetting some of this terrible sadness. I will miss you terribly, buddy. As Barbie said: “get the party started,” I can hear Southside already. God's speed, my friend. “Timmy 'Schwebber’”

Karen, family, and staff - There are no words to describe the shock, sadness, and loss that I feel on learning of Doc's passing. He was so proud of all of you and shared stories about you every time I saw him -- and he never failed to ask about my children. The world has lost a gentle, loving, playful, and kind spirit. I consider myself blessed to have known him as doctor and friend. Thanks, Doc, I'm a better person because of you.

I was saddened to learn of Dr. Cohen's passing. I had just visted with him the week before his passing. As usual, Dr. Cohen not only answered my medical questions but asked about the other things that matter in lfe: mainly family, work and fun. Dr, Cohen made a difference during his time with us and was a shining, compassionate star. He will be missed.
March 7, 2011
Such a loss to so many. His family, he often talked about, and as patient such a great friend and Doctor. Our thoughts are with his family, staff and friends.

I've had a hard time writing this because I can't see through my tears. Mike, you were a gift in my life and I'm thankful for that.
Mike and I drove cross country in the 80's to move me out to Seattle. We spent the entire drive listening to the same songs over and over again on the radio and couldn't wait to get the C&W music off the air... and what does he do?... falls in love and moves to Texas. I wonder if he learned to enjoy that music like I did.
Michael was a great tease and I can imagine the kids and Karen know this more than anyone. Though we hadn't talked in years, I can still hear his laugher and know it will be in my soul for the rest of my living days.
I've imagined him as a doctor and bet he was the kind of person that put you at ease immediately. His professionalism wasn't to be questioned and I know how caring he was.
He'd never admit to it, but Mike actually danced a 12 hour marathon with me at college. We weren't dating - he was just the kind of friend that would do this for you.
Mike, thanks for giving me the gift of friendship with Peter (your brother) and Isabelle. I will take good care of them and together we will have a few good laughs and talk of the Red Sox, Boston and your life with joy.
Miss you .... go start the party ahead of us... Barb
PS: If someone knows a person name Vito in Mike's life, I will never forget hearing your name uttered through his lips. Mike - I'll be thinking of you as I paint my next paintings of the mountains.

My heart is filled with sadness, for I will miss a friend who was my Doctor. I always looked forward to going in for my regular checkups to see the friendly staff, Chris and Karen and Doc. Doc and I would talk business, family and of couse our mutual friend Jerry. My prayers and love go out to Karen, Stephanie and Connor. Doc thanks for your loving care and friendship. May you rest in peace and continue to watch over all of us you left to early.
March 5, 2011
Dr. Cohen was my friend and primary doctor for over ten years. He successfully helped me through some very tough times in my life and I will be forever grateful to him for that. He was always genuinely caring, compassionate and extremely generous to me. I will miss Michael a great deal. I want to extend my deepest sympathy to his family and many close friends.

It is still so hard to believe that someone so young has left us. Dr. Cohen was a delightful soul. His passion for medicine was demonstrated in the care he gave his patients. My heart is filled with sadness for his family. He adored his wife and children...you could see it in his face when he spoke of them. My prayers are with you all. May God hold you in His hands in the days and months to come.

While I have not been in touch with Cohey in many years. He touched my life in our freshmen year. He took me out in his grey Opel and told me that there are two things in life to remember the light and the dark. It means more to me today then it did then, for all the times we talked, for all the times we struggled. Michael is one of the few that will always be in the light!

I will miss my Uncle Cohey very much. I will miss his loud laugh, busting through the door early in the morning wanting breakfast and coffee, and without fail saying "what do you know, Kelley Rose?" each time I saw him. My response was, of course, everything. The fact that he could take care of me when I got sick was just a bonus. Anyone who has met him knows how wonderful he was and that there is not a person out there that could fill his void. I loved my Uncle Cohey very much, and will miss him terribly. Luckily, he has left me with many special memories that I will cherish forever. I am also very thankful for the friendship that he gave to my dad.

I knew "Cohey" back in college at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Although I hadn't been in contact with him in about 30 years, I remember his humor, smile, and being very fun to be around. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing and wish his family the very best.

It is a very sad day for me today. Not knowing of Dr. Cohen's passing, I showed up for an appointment this morining, excited to see his new office. Then I recieved the news, it left a very empty feeling in my heart. I felt as though I lost a very close friend. Even though I only knew Dr. Cohen through my visits to his office, I will miss him dearly.

I really only knew Michael for one year. We were in the same English class in high school. I was a junior, he was a senior. We became very friendly that year, and he made that year for me. He was such a fun, nice person, and I loved being around him. He always used to ask me if I would go out dancing with him, but I always turned him down since I had a boyfriend. Even though I only had contact with him for that one year, some 35 years ago, and only in that one class, the warmth I felt toward him had kept me wanting to reconnect with him over these past couple of years, and has me full of sadness today. I can't even imagine what his patients, current and long term friends, and most of all, his family must be feeling now. It has been so heartwarming to read how he touched the lives of all his patients and friends and how important his family was to him. My sincerest sympathy goes out to all of you. Sorry we never went out dancing togther Michael. Rest in Peace.

We all know how loved you were before today. However, seeing a standing room only at your memorial was so moving. I have never met a more caring Doctor in my life.

May you have much joy from here on in.

When I needed a new Dr. a couple of years ago I visited several offices to see how I would be treated. Not well a few times by other practices, but when I walked in Dr. Cohen's late one afternoon Chris treated me nicely and told me she would see if they could take another of a closing practice's patients. They called me back promptly the next day, took me in and treated me like part of the Family from day one. Dr. Mike was an exceptional guy; so easy to relate to. He took such wonderful care of us all. God Bless the Family, staff and everyone affected by this tragic loss. It was a wonderful and uplifting service this afternoon. So glad to learn more about this wonderfully pleasant and gifted man. So glad I stopped by a couple of years ago and got to know everyone at that office.

The mustard colored toyota, in high school, the engine so small it was more like a lawn mower with wheels. Just as well we never had money for gas.
When you decided to become a doctor I said "oh ya mother will be so proud of you" we laughed till the tears came running out.
......Loved our trip to Texas to see your new house, the kids were young all running around in a gazebo somewhere downtown. You, the creator of a great new life with Paula and Gerry never far away.
Too young buddy., leading us into this new chapter in our existence.

My daughter Annie and Connor have been classmates for 3 years and I was a patient for about 3 years. I loved visiting with him about "teens".

I have had many a doctor, There is not one that could hold a candle to Dr. Cohen. I always enjoyed my office visit with him, he took care of business, and what a personality this man had,. He always asked about my husband, who is the one who, recommended Dr. Mike, nearly six years ago. I am at a losss for words, for his family!! You are all in my thoughts, and my prayers,
March 3, 2011
We are so very sorry for the loss of Dr. Cohen. We pray that God provides comfort, strength, and guidance to his family, friends, patients, and staff. I had a lot in common with Dr. Cohen: I lived in New Hampshire for some years, my daughter and Connor are classmates, and I knew his previous business partner. We always had much to talk about during our visits and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. Dr. Cohen was so proud of his family! Plus, as everyone knows, he was a caring and compassionate doctor. We are privileged and honored to have known him. God bless Dr. Cohen and his family.

It's 1973 or '74 or '75... and I know the Cohey "I'll give you a lift to school policy" which was, be outside when I get there or I'll keep driving"... I hear his 1969 Corolla before I actually see it because Pink Floyd or Deep Purple or Yes is blasting from the 8 track... I'm the last to be picked up.... Donnie and Tim are already on board... off to another day at SHS with Cohey laughing and playing music...
Later I get my license and I reciprocate by frequently driving to The Spa, The Venice, Civ's Circle or Redwing on weekends. Cohey and Sklarzy are in the backseat, literally counting my every driving error...
Next weekend its off to Deanie's house for a card game, because Mel and Fran are in Vegas. Everyone is there but it's Cohey and his sense of humor that sets the pace. We crack up when he recounts how he walked in a robber in his house and he chased him down Leonard Road...
All of my memories of Cohey are just like that. Fun, laughing, stories, friends.... I'll cherish those memories!

I keep asking why God would take such a wonderful, compassionate, caring and loving man from us. The only thing I can think of is he needed a good Doctor for himself. Why? Why take him when we all loved him so much and needed him. I'm still in shock.
I will continue to pray for his wife and children as well as all of his patients including myself who really appreciated his love and compassion for us.

Our dear Uncle Cohey as we knew him has left us! Not enough space or words to describe the kind of person he was. From the day he was born to the day he suddenly left us there were not many people we know that had the heart, humor, work ethic, love for family and friends, than Uncle Cohey. We will always keep him our thoughts and our grief is shared by many! Our prayers are with Karen and the kids and will always notice and feel a void he has left. With all our love! Alan and Family...

I didn't know him as Dr. Cohen. I hardly knew him as Michael Cohen. I did know him as Cohey. A fun-loving, warm-hearted, joyful, spirit with an infectious laugh, who helped create unforgettable San Antonio Thanksgiving memories at the Sklar house. I don't have any photos of those Texas holidays, but I do have a great picture of Keith, Jerry, Paula, Karen & Cohey at the Garden watching the Celtics. It didn't get any better than that. It's been 25 years, but I still cried at the news and for Karen's great loss. Karen, you and your family will be in my prayers.

Deepest Sympathy to family and staff of Dr. Cohen.
I was in disbelief when I heard the sad news of my earthly physician. I have only been a patient of his for a couple of years, but I truly felt so fortunate to have found a doctor that was so kind, caring, and concerned about my health problems. It will be very difficult to find a replacement that will care for my health as he did.
May each of you find peace and strength now and these difficult days ahead.
Sincerely,

We became aware of Dr. Cohen when he treated a friend's elderly parent, including trips to the hospital to check on her. We were so impressed! Later, we needed to change family physicians due to a change in our insurance, and we quickly agreed that Michael Cohen was our man, if he'd have us. Needless to say, he's been a friend and a constant help for better than ten years. His passing is truly tragic. Our condolences to his family and to all of his friends.

Words are inadequate! There was so much Dr. Mike
lived for and so much to give to his God, his family, friends and patients. These two families were the recipients of his many talents' His knowledge of medicine, his sense of humor, his loyalty to his many friends, family and his patience and understanding while treating his patients. We sent our heart felt condolences to his family. Munro and Barbara Blanks

My heartfelt sympathy to Michael's family. I went to Sharon High School with Michael and remember him to be a very nice and likable guy. Even after 35 years I can still hear the sound of his laugh; it was genuine and infectious. My sincerest sympathies.

Uncle Cohey was a great man. His radiant smile filled any room he was in and his bellowing laugh was contagious. You couldn't help but smile when he was around. He was always a friend, always caring, and someone who will be greatly missed by those who had the privilege of knowing him. The world has lost one of the good ones, but his kindness and passion for life will continue on through his greatest treasure - his family. God Bless you all and may you find peace as Michael was called home. Our prayers and sympathy go out to you. The Lumpkin Family Joyce, Joe and the girls

I'll never forget Cohey's laugh. It was real and it was infectious. When you heard it, you knew everything was gonna be OK. Growing up together in Sharon, Mike was a guy you wanted to be around. Always. He brought a joy and passion to everything he did. On the soccer field, he was a scrapper who wouldn't back down from anyone. In the classroom, he was a fun-loving guy you wanted to sit next to. And on weekends, there was no one better at sharing laughs and stories. Cohey was a warm, generous and loving friend. It's no surprise that his patients in Texas speak so highly of him. Mike was the real deal. A great guy who made life better for those around him. My heartfelt condolences to Karen, Stephanie and Connor. I hope the love and support of friends and family will bring you some comfort at this difficult time.

Dr Mike, You will be missed. You leave a legacy of being a caring doctor who treated each patient as if they were part of your family. You also leave a legacy of being a good man who loved his wife and children. You ran a great race.

Dear Karen, Stephanie, Connor and family –
The tears have not stopped upon hearing of the passing of Cohey. I keep asking myself what I could possibly say to bring you comfort at this time and I come up empty, for no amount of words could ever relieve the pain, sadness and disbelief that accompanies such a sudden and devastating loss such as this one. Our paths have not crossed (with much regret) in quite awhile, but I will always remember his warm and genuine nature, the smile that wouldn’t quit and the laugh that was infectious. (A laugh that no doctor could treat.) He was and always will be the “best”. The best husband, dad, brother, caregiver and friend.
I personally believe that there are two principles one lives by;
1) That we matter!
2) That life is everlasting!
I know that Cohey’s life certainly mattered and I believe that his life will be everlasting!
I know he will live on in many of our hearts and most definitely mine!
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
God bless you all!
And God please take care of “my buddy” Cohey.
All my love!

I met Michael the day I arrived at UMass. That was the beginning of a life long friendship. Michael was a person his friends could always count on to be there when needed. I will cherish the time that I had with Mike and he will forever be in my heart.
My deepest sympathy to his beloved family and all that loved him.

Dr. Cohen was a special person who always cared about his patients. His eyes lit up when we talked about his family and how proud he was of his kids.
There are no words to describe his sudden passing.
