Well it´s seven years later and I still have the old Beemer that Michael rode all over Martha´s Vineyard when visiting his Mom and sister. I wonder If the guy who named his dog Harley ever told St Peter he rode a Beemer!!

Mike, your stoke and genuineness have been such a major inspiration in my life. I remember when you first moved nextdoor in California and we became instant buddies, always psyched to hangout and get after it. I remember how excited I was when I found out you were going to Tam High. You were a role model to me and influenced who I am today. You are the man and have an amazing spirit which lives on in all of those you've touched. Ride in peace, brother.

Dear Michael & Carolyn-
I am so very sorry for your loss.
I never met young Michael but I was friends with Michael senior in college.
It is horrible to lose anyone, especially a child- no matter the age.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

I remember watching you fly past me at Jennings on your Daytona. While I tried unsuccessfully to keep up on mine. Every time I asked you anything. You always had the time to talk. That is if I could get you off your mountain bike long enough. Great guy. Full of life and happiness. God speed my friend. Tell Tommy we said hello

Our family is greatly saddened to hear of Michael's untimely passing. We had the great pleasure of spending a lot of time with Michael on and off the track as he and my son Colton were good friends. We recount many fun times on the race track and riding on our ranch. Mike was always such a positive influence with his smiling face and lust for life. He will be missed greatly. We hope his family can be comforted in this very hard time to know what a great positive influence he had on everyone he met. God bless all of you.

When visiting the Vineyard, Michael rode my old Beemer all over the Island enjoying the adventure and the twisties on Middle Road. Though he took a lot of selfies with that old bike, I don't think he confessed to many of his Harley and racing pals he had been riding a Beemer! He certainly enjoyed his time here and on earth. I was looking forward to his return so I could ride with him and pick up a few tips. That will have to wait.

I am deeply saddened by this tragic news. Though I never knew him, I grew up with his brother Chris and was acquainted with his Aunt Lee Corbino and his father Michael. I have a son who was born in 1988 and races cars and ATV's...the thought of this loss just blows me away. I am thinking and praying for each member of the family and all of his friends. May you be comforted knowing he loved life and was doing what he loved when his soul left this earth. Just so sad.

December 2, 2015

When a person departs from this earth they never truly leave, for they are still alive in our hearts and minds, through us, they live on. Please accept our deepest and heartfelt condolences, Michael will never be forgotten. We will always remember and cherish the times we spent together.

I remember the first time I met Michael at Southside elementary, he was in kindergarten with my son Sean, he had the cutest smile and those dimples just made it even cuter. I knew Sean and Michael were going to be friends. It's never easy loosing a loved one, and even harder when it's your child. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May Michael rest in peace, but live on through his memories.
