Not sure what to say?

A sudden death is always shocking hard to get over. I´ll always remember my childhood friend losing his life on Sheridan Rd and Yorkhouse crossing the street. You did all you could as parents Doug.

"Rather than mourn the abscence of the flame, let us celebrate how brightly it burned."

Doug, Paula, Matt, Donovan and Eddie,

Although there are no words that we can say, no answers we can give that will make this easier on you. We promise you that Michael hears you when you speak. No matter the distance, no matter the place. He is in all that you do.

Each of us was given a part of Michael and for a lot of us that was his humor. So remember him and smile, remember him and laugh, remember him and do something crazy like he would!

We thank you...

To Michael my loving brother,I love you and miss you so much. You are in my heart and in my thoughts everyday. There's not one moment that goes by when I'm not thinking about you. Wish you where here kid, I love you with all my heart. Your brother Matthew

Mike-
Dear O'Brien Family I just heard about your loss and I'm so sorry I didn't hear sooner to be there. Mike I will remember all the times you slept on our couch or gave Yvonne and I big sloppy kisses. I wish I could've talked to you one more time after my wedding. You will truly be missed and I will always remember the great memories of all of us at "the pub" and just hanging out. I miss you Mike. My heart and sympathy go out to all the O'briens' and their friends! From my family to...
