To Michael's family:
I was Michael's friend, real estate agent and long time ( over 25 years) customer. He was an expert at his craft, a lover of great music, and truly enjoyed fishing and traveling.He loved his kids and the time you got to spend together. No one was as talented as Michael with scissors and color. I will really miss Michael and our long friendship.

I was so saddened and shocked tto hear about the passing of Michael. He was not only my hair stylist but also a good friend. He knew all my children and grandchildren. When my daughter got married he did all of our hair styles and was at the wedding. I feel very sorry for Erica, Tyler and Rebecca. Michael will be looking down on you and Erica you will have to make sure your son knows about his grandpa. I always loved the music he would have on when I was at the shop. God. Bless Michael and let him rest in peace.

To Michael's family,
I was his client and friend for 17 years and I am so sorry for his loss. He loved his kids very much and always updated me on all the kids and his new grandson whenever I saw him. You are all in my prayers.
Sincerely, Dede Seltzer

Erica, Tyler and Becca. I'm so sorry for your loss. Michael was my hair stylist and friend for about 12 years. I know he loved his children and his new grandson more than anything in this world! I hope his place in heaven has the great music that he loved and plenty of fish to catch. ---- Marty Moyers
