Not sure what to say?

I worked with Mike at KBR in one of the foreign offices and, although I didn't know him well, I am very sad to hear of his passing.

To all the wonderful people who have written about my brother Michael.
thank you . I miss him so much that when I stop I still get a shock. He was a great , caring brother. You know , I never forgot that one time we were swimming in the Potomac River, and I just could not go on, the current was to strong. Well, he had just completed his Red Cross certification, and helped me to shore.It was always like that with Michael.
And every night I do look to the evening star and I swear I...

To the family, my name is Paula Parrish and my life will never be the same since the loss of Mr. Mendenhall. I was on the phone with him at the time of the accident, I have to say that this has been really hard for me. I am in Dallas Tx but am a native Houstonian so when Mr. Mendenhall called to advise that he had a flat tire, I knew ecactly where he was because Houston is my home. He was very relived to know that I could pin point his location. I have to share that I am a beliver in Christ...

Michael was a lovely man. While I didn't know him well, I am glad for the interactions I did have with him, he had a kind and gentle spirit. Michael was precious. I remember singing with him at our friends Sofia and Robert's home, and Mike taught me that Simon and Garfunkel's song "Scarborough Fair" is a song about impossible demands :). I remember Michael smiling and laughing as he explained the lyrics to me. His voice and spirit will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family and...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

When a person you love passes away
Look to the night sky on a clear day.
The star that to you, appears to be bright,
Will be your loved one,
Looking upon you during the night.
The lights of heaven are what shows through
As your loved one watches all that you do.
When you feel lonely for the one that you love,
Look to the Heavens in the night sky above.

Just a few words of encouragement to the family Of Michael Paul Mendenhall. He will be...

I was a co-worker of Michaels and although I didn't know him well, I always enjoyed his gentle demeanor and kind ways. It was a great shock to us all to lose such a fine gentleman. May God bless and comfort his loved ones. Mark Moser Recruiter KBR.

I was very shocked and saddened to hear about Michael. I worked with Mike at KBR as a Recruiter, in fact we were both hired by the same external staffing company. I will always remember Mike's entrance into the breakroom with his smile and mild manner easy disposition. He worked hard and is greatly missed by all.
