Not sure what to say?

Mike i can't comprehend this devesting news. Tim and i talked about the headache we caused you growing up. I hope those times can be replaced with good memories. Rest in peace my friend

I worked as a close partner with Mike when he first joined our organization and loved his sensitivity, focus and caring approach to his work and his relationships. I came to really appreciate our partnership and I learned from him. This is truly sad news, my sincere thoughts and best wishes are with his family, to whom I know he was very dedicated. RIP my friend.

I worked with Mike for about a year - when he first arrived, he shook us out of our complacency to do more and do better, all with a quiet, confident leadership style. while we didn't work together directly, I knew right away he would be a great leader for the company both because of his experience, but also because he brought his full self to work every day. He was willing to deal with the stuff that was broken, and fix it. These are rare qualities and we were lucky to have had him.

Mike was such a great guy to work with. He always had a positive can-do attitude and a good sense of humor too. More than that, he was an all around good person who genuinely cared about people.

The first time I ever communicated with Mike was when he joined the company and sent his first email. I noticed that his avatar was Bill Murray, which immediately made me like him.

I only worked with Mike for a short time, but that first impression stuck. I appreciated his direct and honest communication, and his ability to focus on what ENG needed. He was a good leader who pushed for integrity, quality, and continuous improvement; traits I suspect were within him outside of the...

Mike and I only worked together for a short time but in that time it was clear he was a very devoted family man. My thoughts and best wishes are with Mike's family, hoping that they can find clarity and peace with this situation and remember the good times and contribution that Mike made to each of their lives (and visa versa). With sympathy, Ken

To the Aeschliman family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I had the honor of knowing Mike through Salesforce. He was always a genuine pleasure to work with which is worth noting as it is not often true - in this case, it really was. I know these notes won't blunt the sadness - I lost my father when I was 16, so I speak from experience - but I wanted to somehow convey that while we are strangers, I feel lucky to have known Mike and I share in your grief.

My thoughts go out to you...

Mike was highly respected at work. He will be remembered as a kind open and supportive manager. Our thoughts are with you.

I was stunned and saddened to learn of Mikes passing. We attended grade school together and were later friends during college. I recall one story of him, in-particular, that demonstrated his compassionate character, putting him head and shoulders above the rest. While driving down Main St in Keene with him, he suddenly careened to a stop and leapt from the car, rushing over to help an older woman who had fallen on the sidewalk. Most people would rely on someone else react to such a situation...
