Michael- You are still missed and not forgotten. Precious memories never fade.

Think about you often Mike. I have many great memories of you and hope you are in the Great Gig in the Sky.

Oh my God! I just heard this very sad news, and am devastated! Mike was a wonderful human being that I had the absolute honor to call him one of my very best friends in high school.

Chris, Kay and Karen, very sorry to learn this. I have so many good memories of times with Mike. My hope for you is that your shared memories help to sustain you through this difficult time. My prayers are with all of you.

To the Ecola Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Mike in Dietary at the hospital and have such wonderful memories of his kind, smiling, gentle ways. Yes-there are also a few memories of the tiniest bit of trouble that is pretty normal for kids of our age at the time, but it makes me smile to think of our times trying to make a humdrum day go by! Thinking of you all at this sad time. Sending prayers for peace your way.

Kay, Karen, Chris and families,
I was so very sorry to hear about Mike. I'm sure there are no words I can say.....Mike was like the brother I never had. So many great memories of us growing up together. All the friends from Chestnut Street and the neighborhood. From playing Chase, going to the Butler Pool every day in the summer, sled riding, etc.Even though I have not seen him for many many years, the fond memories will always be there. So sorry for your loss. Our hearts and prayers are...
