To the Bender family: My deepest sympathy on Michael's sudden and premature passing. He was a great friend, college roommate, and fraternity brother, and it was always a pleasure to be in his company. My thoughts are with you during this most difficult time.

Dear Bender Family - I was deeply saddened to hear about Michaels sudden passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I was also a member of his Alfred and Lambda Chi family in addition to being one of his roommates for 3 years. I will remember his easy manner, good humor and friendship. Although we did not see each other that much over the years, whenever we did get together, it was as if we'd seen each other just the other day.

I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. We went to school together and I have a lot of fond memories of riding in his orange VW and working on English papers. We lost touch after high school but I will always remember his sense of humor and the good times we spent together.

To Michael's family and friends: My expression of deepest sympathy goes out to you and your families. Mike was a pleasure to know. Always a pleasant smile to brighten our days. He will be greatly missed by all of his Bank of America friends. May you find some peace during this sadden time.

Dear Sue and family,

My very deepest sympathies to you all. I remember Mike from high school but as many of us do, we lose contact over the years.

I do realize how it feels to lose a sibling. My sister, Diane Sack Maloney passed away suddenly this December 8th. Our family and our friends are devastated. Diane was loved by many people. We cling to our wonderful memories, wipe away a river of tears and thank God for blessing our lives with her. I am so truly sorry for...

Dear Sue and family,

My very deepest sympathies to you all. Although I did not know Mike personally, I do realize how it feels to lose a sibling. My sister, Diane Sack Maloney passed away suddenly this December 8th. My family and our friends are devastated. Diane was loved by many people. We cling to our wonderful memories, wipe away a river of tears and thank God for blessing our lives with her. I am so truly sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you must feel. My prayers...

I respect that Mike was willing to question and challenge me. I admire him for this... but more so for the fact that he was a good listener, good man, and that he often kept things in proper perspective. He could relate with people on their level... this is rare quality and will surely be missed by many. Thank you Mike.

To Sue & Tommy,

My deepest condolences.
