I'm sending love and healing thoughts to Chris, Mark, and Ben. You are never alone in this world, or in your grief. May you find comfort in friends, in family, in Michael's memory, and in each other.

I'm Phyllis, Michael's sister-in-law, and here are some of my favorite quotes, which made me think of Michael. I'm sure many people said prayers for Mike. I liked the part that said I prayed for God's loving care for Mike. Mike's medical care for his patients was beautiful. It couldn't be felt, seen, or touched, but it was felt with their hearts. Mike and I became closer these last few months. He phoned often, listened, and sent me packages. How KIND.

Michael, Susan, and Stuart, circa 1948

Here is a photo of Michael with his siblings Susan and Stuart (twins), circa 1948. I am Joy, Stuart's daughter. In their later years, Mike and my dad became very close.

Will miss you so much Uncle Mike! It was so special growing up with him, Aunt Chris, and Ben whether celebrating holidays at the Annapolis house, swimming in the pool at the Bay House, crabbing in Bethany Beach, or most recently celebrating my 30th birthday at Vero Beach. I will cherish the memories and sending lots of love!

I have so many wonderful memories of holidays spent with Uncle Mike! Whether it was making hats to wear for Thanksgiving, Christmas celebrations in Maryland or birthdays at the beach, I will cherish the time we had together. Thinking of you and sending so much love, Aunt Chris, Ben and Mark!

Sending love, peace and hugs of comfort to my dear sister Chris, Mark and Ben. So grateful for all the many beautiful family times we shared together with Michael in Annapolis, Bethany Beach and more recently Vero Beach. My favorite memory is of him meeting the Koehler Clan on the beach for the first time, and Michael arrived in a three piece suit:) We will so miss his love and calming presence in our lives, but mostly his wonderful ability to make us laugh on a constant basis.
