Dear family of Michael, Without an address, I am forced to use this form to send all of you my love and prayers.

His sense of humor was sharp yet gentle.

You will never be forgotten and we will always remember all you have taught us.

I worked with Mike when I first moved to this area in 1985. He was dedicated to his profession and always had the best interest of the child at heart.

My condolences go out to his family and friends.

Debbie, I am so sorry for your loss. I only just realized that I met Michael once years ago at your parents' house when Eddie came to visit. You seemed so happy and I was happy for you. May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead.

Sorry to the family Rip Dr.Buxton
