I was just curious whatever happened to Mike Wirth. I worked with him for a bit at Bridgestone Graphics. He was cool as, lets just say he was very cool. A very easy guy to work with and just a great vibe to him, and I'm sorry he's passed and I know those that knew him better are absolutely missing him..

I am so sorry to hear of Michaels passing. We had a few good camping trips together that I will never forget. I have known the family for many years and loved you all. Michael will now be with his mom and dad which I miss so much. My deepest sympathy to Johnny, Sabrina and family, and I'm sure you have many memories.

Michael,
The Angel. Who would ever think that you would be walking the Stairway to Heaven, so soon. I am so happy that we have been in touch over the years. Dam, I always expected to find you at a concert. Southern Rock Baby. I am so glad that we talked not long ago.
You helped me when I was down. You were such a GREAT friend.
My sympathy to your Johnny and the children.

"Uncle Mike"... To say the least, the world is at a loss without you. You were the best Brother In Law and horseshoe partner any girl could ask for! Your smile and happy go lucky nature touched everyone around you :) May you rest in peace as you live in all of our hearts. You are loved and will certainly be missed.

I miss you, Daddy. I am so thankful for all of the beautiful moments we shared together. I wouldn't be the same person I am today if it weren't for you. I promise to make you proud. Thank you for teaching me so much about life, about all of the things that can't be found in books. I promise to live it to the fullest like you did. So sad we can't make new memories together, but I hope you know how much I cherish all of the old ones. Sunny misses you and sends you lots of hugs and kisses. Love forever, your little princess.

I will always have such great memories of us all camping at Shir Roy in the summer time, sitting @ the camp fire or the way he could light up a room with his smile.
