Michael F. Cripps

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

I had the pleasure of briefly working with Mike in the last few years.
My condolences, thoughts, and prayers go out to his family.

I knew Mike through his work with the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC). He was a talented engineer and a person who was always available to help others. The computing benchmark community will miss him.

Mike was a great mentor when I was first starting my career in computer graphics. His passion and enthusiasm for the work was contagious. My sympathies go out to all his family and friends.

I always looked forward to Mikes visits to the SOLIDWORKS Madison office. He would come into my office with his cup of coffee and we would catch up on SOLIDWORKS and personal news. As others have said, he was always there to help out with anything he could. I feel blessed to have called him a friend.

I am deeply saddened by this news. I worked with Mike for many years (18+), and he was a hardworking man. He will be truly missed. My deepest sympathies go to his family- I am so sorry for your loss.

Our friend and colleague will be dearly missed. His kind, professional attitude was great to work with inside the SOLIDWORKS family. His vast knowledge and willingness to calmly share it was something to aspire to.

My deepest Condolences to all friends, family, and co-worker. Although, I never met Mike but we had several emails exchange and conference calls over last 3 years. His work ethics and willingness to help will never forgotten and ability to solve complex issue with calm is the best lesson I have learnt from him.

I will fondly remember Mike's calm and kind demeanor to everyone he worked with at SOLIDWORKS. His willingness to help anyone who asked a question, was unsurpassed. Mike taught me a lot and I'll always remember him with true fondness and admiration. Condolences to all his family and friends.
