Michael J. Brown

Oh Dear Mikey Brown, how very sad our family was to hear you left us so suddenly! Guess you wouldn't have had it any differently though, you were heading out on a great journey... little did you know it was going to be the greatest one you've ever been on! Your life has impacted SO MANY PEOPLE! Ditto to all the other wonderful comments about you. I remember when you and Linda surprised us on our Honeymoon at Lutsen's Resort after the first night we were there! You, Linda, Ron and...

Our sympathy to the Brown family. We met Mike through the fire service and had a great deal of respect for him.
As former owners of CompressAir & Equipment Co. we worked with him. You are in our thoughts during this difficult time.

My condolences to Mike's family and friends, especially George and Paul Rettinger who will miss you terribly.

My Condolences to Mike's Family Mike was a great guy I met him through my parent's. Mike was on the Fire Department With my Dad.

Mke, The fire service has lost a dedicated brother. Your dedication and service to the Long Lake area will be greatly missed. As a sign of respect, I have placed a black band on my badge which will remain until the funeral service is over. Rest in peace Mike you deserve it.

It was with great sadness that we learned Wednesday morning of the terrible accident that took your life. We were filled with feelings of shock and thoughts of the injustice of it all, you certainly didn't deserve that outcome. I feel fortunate to have known you throughout the years and will cherish the memory of our last conversation at Rick and Deb's party this past Memorial weekend. You were the kind of person I felt better about myself for having known you. You will be greatly missed...

Mike- We were so looking foreward to this bike trip to New Mexico and Colorado. Now it is over before it even began, as we were Scheduled to leave the next morning to meet up with our group in Dodge City Kansas, what a terrible change of events. Now we are left remembering the bike trips of the past. The trip to Lake Louise and Jasper, the winter bike trip to Phoenix Arizona, and best of all. The bike trip to Alaska. It was very long, but it sure was eventful....

Mike,
We will always cherish the many times you guided us along on our rides and will always remember your kindness and smiling face. Words cannot express the void your leaving us has left in our hearts.
