Michael was a very good friend for several decades although we only met twice. We shared a lot of interests and enjoyed helping each other with projects. Michael was one of the most generous men I've known and I will try to be more like him in my own life.
My condolences to Janet and Charity for the enormity of your loss.

Mike will greatly missed, I knew him for years through the gun culture. We met in person only a few times, with lots of e-mails, and phone calls in between.

A great big bear of a man who was always pleasant, and, always had time to talk about a great rifle. We have lost a great friend.

We were sorry to hear of Mikes passing. We have fond memories of the three of you as neighbors in Kenai.

My sincere condolences to Petrov family. Michael and I never met in person but spoke many times on the phone and exchanged many, many emails over the year. His depth and breadth of knowledge was tremendous and his enthusiasm for the subject was infectious. He taught me a lot about firearms, but also taught me a lot more. I will really miss being able to talk to him. Rest in peace Michael.
