I was so sorry to hear about Mike, our prayers will be with you.

We are very, very sorry to hear about Mike. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I also worked with Mike for many years. He was always the first person to offer help with any project,no matter if it was work related, or something personal.

I was first introduced to Michael when I worked at Sterling years ago. I found out that Michael and my dad were cousins! It was an honor to know Michael and call him my cousin as well.

I met Mike 7 years ago and he was nothing but nice to me. Although we worked different shifts when we saw each other we always had a conversation that usually ended in a laugh. Mike was a very intelligent and fun person and he will be greatly misssed. My deepest sympathy to his wife and family. We have truly lost a gem.
