Michael J. Baye

I just learned of Mike"s passing. I'm SO sorry to hear that. He was such a nice guy.

Fellow classmate, GB West '64. Mike and his brother Joe were stalwarts, both then and later in life. Mike, as a fellow USAF vet, went above and beyond being the glue that held our Class together with reunions, updates, and -- sadly in retrospect -- obits. Saddened by his passing. Love and condolences to his family, and to all he touched. Godspeed.

Sorry for your loss. Prayers for your entire family. He is leaving quite a legacy, filled with love and service. May God bless you all.

My deepest sympathy on your loss.

We will always remember Mike as a great teacher who loved his country and raised 4 amazing kids. Our thoughts and prayers go out for your family.

So very sorry for your loss. My late husband and I went to UW-Oshkosh together with Mike and Joe. Mike's brother Joe and my late husband Jim were in the same fraternity. Both Mike and my husband were teachers and coaches. Mike was a dedicated teacher and coach I know. I have a twin sister like Joe and Mike were and it must be especially hard for your family. May you find comfort in each other. With deepest sympathy and prayers.

We had the honor of living across the street from Mr. Mike and Karen for 10 years. Mr. Mike was such a sweet, kind man, and treated our boys like one of his grandkids. He captured so many pictures of our family over the years, and always printed them off and brought them over. We will deeply treasure these snap shots in time he gave us. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

There are so many great memories myself and my two sons have with both Mike and Karen. When they came down to Oregon and stayed with us for holidays, birthdays and just for the heck it. We always had a wonderful time. I always told Mike that my house was his free space. He could do whatever he wanted and did not have to listen to Karen. :) His stories were the best along with his love of South Park. He is truly going to be missed. God always takes the best way too soon!

We all lost a great man and friend. Mike you are now in heaven doing what you always loved and that is coaching the game of football and teaching young men the future skills of life. You will be missed but know you remain in our hearts.
