Not sure what to say?

Everyone who has known Mike is the better for it. The world could use more of his compassion, wit, and insight right now. A rare and amazing person, with a blazing creative mind. Thanks Mike, for making it weird in in the best way.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

So sad , Michael was a huge part of our family. A special thank you to Donna Busch
Who treated Michael as a son and was a caring mother figure , we will miss him

We shared Mike’s love of music and appreciated his creativity. If St Peter will allow him to take his guitar with him when he enters the Pearly Gates, we are certain he will entertain the multitudes who are in Heaven. May he rest in Eternal Peace. -Sandi and Lyle Froese, McKinney, TX.

Michael Thompson was my best friend and most frequent musical collaborator. I first met him 1994 via a mutual friend and was knocked out by his intellect, humor, and creativity. As our friendship flourished I also discovered his kindness, empathy, and generosity. I am shocked that he is gone, yet grateful for the three decades I knew him. Godspeed, Mike.

I first met Michael in 1993. I was amazed by the humor and wit of his music. I never knew a better person. I called him a living angel. I am greatly saddened by his passing. I am so joyful I had the privilege to know him. May all of his friends and family find peace from this loss.
