Chère Mary,

je n'ai pas cessé de penser à toi et à Mike. Je suis si heureuse d'avoir pu le connaître et d'avoir passé ces beaux moments avec vous!

Je t'embrasse

Mary, I just heard of Mike's passing and am truly sad to hear of your loss. I had only met Mike a few times but remember emailing him often when I worked for Carl and Derek several years ago. He always brought a smile to my face. And more recently I have thought of both you and Mike often with added respect since I was diagnosed with PD three years ago. He was a very courageous man. Sincerely, Carol Grant

Mary, my condolences to you. May we all be so fortunate to have someone like you to provide loving care when needed. I hope you find peace in this time of pain.

Hi Mary,
I was very sorry to hear about Mike. I had the opportunity to meet and work with Mike at Cray Research. I found Mike to be a top-notch, well-respected marketing executive. In addition, Mike had the business acumen to realize that winning sales was not always the most important long-term goal. Mike understood that improperly structured sales could be costly to the corporate group. In my experience, that is a rare trait for a marketing executive to have and consistently practice....

Dear Danielle and Family,

We are very sorry for your loss. We pray you will be comforted by the Holy Spirit Comforter. Our hearts go out to you during this difficult time.

Dear Mary, Thank you for your friendship, and for enjoying the friendship Paul and Mike had at Struthers as well as later on. I enjoyed Mike a lot and will miss him. But I will never miss his long suffering - I am so glad he is free of that now. May you remember his love for you during this hard time. It will sustain you. I will keep in touch - promise!!

My sincerest sympathies to Mary and Danielle at this sad time. Mike was a great man - intelligent, charming, thoughtful, and always so caring. He also had such a positive outlook. He was a wonderful diplomat for Cray - travelling the world. Mike hired me at Cray back in 1983 and it was a joy to work with him. I'll always remember Mike's advice at times of uncertainty - he would ask "what is the worst thing that could happen?" It's a good phrase to ask oneself - every now and...

Dear Mary,
I feel sadness for the loss of a well-respected man and extend sincere sympathy to you, whose love knew no bounds. May you find peace knowing you truly did all that you could to support and care for the man you loved.
Heartfelt condolences,
Linda Tuohy

Mary and Family - You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Mike was a true gentleman and my memories of him at Cray and years after are wonderful. One of my fondest memories is that, when I worked for him, he would bring me trinkets from his international travels. I still have and treasure each and every one of them. You were a beautiful couple, Mary, and I know he treasured and was very proud of Danielle.
