Michael,

I will never see the smile that so many were blessed to see over and over again more recently and over the last few years that I did not see you. However, that same smile from when we were younger, is still so vivid in my mind and will remain in my heart forever. To Terry, Eileen,and family, I wish you well, all you can keep is the good memories, I love you all,

Terry and Jody, and to the rest of the family I did not know as well,
Reading these entries...I am at a loss for words. Me and Mike dated, a few years back, and have been forever friends. I find it hard on deciding what to write on here. But i just wanted to show my love, and wish you all well. God Bless.

No parent should ever have to bury their child. To your parents, I am so sorry...and I know no words I can provide will ever change the pain you will feel forevermore. But you have the condolences of a very good part of this city.

Mike and I always had ups and downs and some great times in between. I hope everyone that knew Mike can finally take this as a sign that we all need to get it together and take advantage of the lives that Mike and all our other friends gone before him will never get to experience. We need to live our lives for those that we have lost. You were really the last I ever expected would go Mike...You got me good...got me real good. RIP

Uncle Terry, Aunt Eileen, Julie-Anne and Jody, I am so sorry for your loss. As I sit and read these entries, I am learning that my youngest cousin was one heck of a young man! He has touched the hearts of so many ! I wish we had lived closer, so I could have known him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all - I love you and ache for you. May the love of family and friends help carry you through this hard time.
All my love, Mona

My memories of Michael are of a little blue eyed devil running around your house at the speed of light. Although this was around 17 years ago, they remain vivid. I was at a concert last night and the MC gave a shout-out for him to rest in peace and the WHOLE crowd cheered. My sincere condolences to the whole family, Julie-Anne, contact me if you would like to. I am here for you, and wish you and your loved ones peace of mind,and acceptance of what we cannot change. Know that he was loved by many, and will be missed by all.
