Not sure what to say?

Weasel was good man and a friend who was always there when I needed him.. I cant believe I'm reading this

Dear Karen and Mark, I just had lunch with Sharon Potter and was so sad to hear about Mikes death. The pain of losing a child not matter their age is so difficult. I can only hope and pray that he is at peace now. Please remember all the good times and take care of yourselves. Praying for peace and healing for you both. Love Evie

Dear Karen and Mark - so sorry for your loss, words can't begin to take away the pain of losing a child but hope that Michael is at peace now. Treasure all the good times and take care of yourselves.

Karen and Mark. I am so sorry to hear of Michael's short time on this earth. Lots of memories and conversations with the 3 of you over the past 40+ years. It's been a pleasure knowing you all and your pets since 1978 when I first started practicing. Michael was about 8 then. I think of you often since retiring 2 years ago. My sincere condolences.

I met Mikes parents at the VA. I thought we beat this almost 10years ago when we left the VA together with your parents. I visited with him at his place in 2019. Each time I check on FB he looked so full of life. I wish he could have reached out to me like before.

What a lovely and poignant tribute. I salute this grieving family for their courage and honesty. The scuba diving memories are surely very beautiful for his mother. I am so sorry for the pain she and others are experiencing, and I am glad Michael is in no pain now ;-( . His life had meaning.

We lived across the street from the Mayers on 32nd Pl. Our boys grew up with Mike. We loved Mike he always had a smile on his face. I hope he is at peace now. Our prayers are with you Karen and Mark. Diane, Jason and Matt. We lost our David in 2011. .

We going to Weasel, going up 3 houses away we are a family in that neighborhood, our US Military is grieving over this loss as well. Growing with Mike fun how we both ended up in Germany, nice to a Familiar face on such a large base.. Mark and Karen, you both are on all my thoughts and prayers.. RIP Weasel .. Hooah

I offer the family my deepest sympathies in their time of loss and grief. Thank you for your service Micheal.
