So sorry to hear about Michael's passing... I worked with him for some time, and he never seemed too busy for conversation. Definitely was a great guy to have gotten to know, no question. Sorry for your loss.

I remember when I was very young seeing a bundle of blonde curls, and rolls of fluff as white as a cloud with a smile for everyone that my aunt brought from California. She called him Michael Jon. He was not perfect, but in his humanity-- angelic. He was not the biggest, yet his loving caring presence enveloped all around him. He was not the strongest or fearless, but fought with every fiber in his immortal soul to stand in the frightening face of endless slumber to stay... just a little longer, for us. Through his life, he made ours a little brighter, and a life like that leaves an indelible mark that can never fade, so we ache for those of us he left behind: especially for his mommy, Jackie and little Natalie, only because his light and love was as necessary part of their everyday as air and water. I hate that I wasn't there as much as I should have been, but honored he graced my life at all. I miss you Primo.
