Just read in the October 2012 AHRMM publication about Michael's passing. He was a great person and I sad to hear of his passing. I feel he's probably looking down upon all of us smiling broadly. Best to his loved ones.

My condolences to Michaels family, I worked with Michael at St. Mary's, and always enjoyed our meetings and talks. One day I was admiring a large diagram of a B-52 bomber he had hanging in his office, and the next day he had one waiting for me at work. That's just the kind of guy he was. That meant so much to me. Michael will surely be missed. Andy Almodova (Tucson, Az)

Mike was a wonderful co-worker. We shared some memorable laughs during the H1N1 crisis a few years ago. He always responded immediately to my many phone calls for supply updates. He will be remembered. My sympathies to his family.

I have wonderful memories of Michael. I can hear his laughter,see him going for the chocolate cake at a party and eating his and any other icing, because "icing is the best part of a cake" Michael was kind and very generous to many, and we will never forget that. Calling Mike "friend" for the past 7 years has been a joy.
Heaven better have a lot of chocolate and yards sales... Sanford Out
