Not sure what to say?

I´m so sorry Cindie that we lost touch. Over the years we have looked for news of you and Mike. Sadly, we found him too late to share how much he meant to each of us. I hope you´ll reach out and let us know when you read this. All our love. Rod & Gale Glover

Me Lee was my 3rd grade teacher while I attended John Muir. Im now 36 yrs old and he has always been on my mind and heart. Its taken me a long time to find and track him down over the years, and have finally found him through this but I am too late. I wanted to tell him thank you. Thank you for being such a wonderful and caring teacher. I will never forget when Mr Lee dropped off some books to read on grief when my father passed away. I remember his classes were always fun and til this day,...

I remember meeting Mike one summer when we were both teaching at SummerGate. He was interested in a change of scenery and asked me probing questions day after day about the idea of moving from Rooftop to Lakeshore where I worked.

Very shocked to read about Mike's passing. Mike worked for me when he was in his mid 20's at my bakery, Weezys. It was a very close knit group and I was fortunate having such a great group working for me. Mike, very early, proved himself a leader, funny, charismatic, highly intelligent. Years later I bumped into him when my kid attended summer school. I'm very sad to hear such a bright star has left this world. He would always be fondly remembered.

So sorry to hear of Michael's death. He moved into my Lakeshore classroom when I retired in 2002. As he brought his zoo in, I knew that my beloved classroom would be in good hands. Through the years, our paths have crossed, and my admiration grew for a man who worked so hard to stay well enough to teach.

No more pain, no more struggles. Welcome to your Heavenly Home, Michael. I'm glad we met.
