Not sure what to say?

Winston, all of Michael's family and to Myriad:
Our most caring thoughts are with you in this difficult time of sorrow. It is truly an honor that Michael said "Hello, my friend" when he would call or stop by our office. What a gem! Much love, Steve & Lorie Chandler

Michael and I knew each other for years as business associates and occasional competitors. He always had my respect and admiration. We came to know each other on a completely different level when he and my wife were both in chemotherapy at MSTI. It was there that I saw the courage, strength and acceptance for which I will always remember him. That was when I also witnessed the many people who were so devoted to him. The remembrances on these pages are no surprise to me. Michael was, and still...

I grew up with Mike in Shelley, Idaho. We enjoyed many times together with friends in our town at a simpler time in the world. We had many laughs and much fun due to Mike's clever personality. We just had our 45th class reunion and Mike couldn't attend but he was missed. I will always remember Mike as a teenager with a great personality.Gloria Malcom Elswood

I have known Mike since he was a little kid picking up milk from my Dad's farm with his Grampa. I have always admired him for his outgoing friendly personallity, he will be truely missed!

We are sorry for your loss, you are in our prayers.

Micheal came into my life when we both struggled over some deep issues of family and religion. I appreciated all the help he gave me when I was hurting and needed someone to vent to. Thanks for the wisdom to take hold of the pain
and really feel what it feels like, then you know you can conquer the pain all on your own,
and you are much stronger for it
Thanks Marty

Though I didn't know Michael for very long, as someone who did business with him, I quickly came to appreciate and respect his integrity, his wisdom, his sincerity, and his dedication to making his business and the industry better. It was evident that his employees, colleagues, and peers held him in the highest regard. My condolences to Michael's family and to all who have lost a friend.

Michael was a true friend. I will never forget my first date, with my soon to be eternal companion and Michael. Michael loaded up the horses, packed a lunch for three, and took Peter and I to the mountains. He made sure it went perfectly, it must have. As we celebrate our anniversaries,(23) we in some way include Michael. What a sweet ride! Thanks for the memories, we will miss you but never forget.
