Miss ya, Dog.

I just found out today of Mike's passing. He was such a lovely man that I had the honor of working with at Glass Doctor. My sincere condolences to his family on his passing....he will be missed.

Prayers for my fellow lineman Mike. While our lives never crossed after we tossed our graduation caps it is evident he cared deeply for his family, friends and community. For Mike's family please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. God has wrapped his loving spirit around you my friend. You will be missed. RIP #73 from #51

To Mike's Children and Family - I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing! My prayers got out to all of you. We went to St. Helen's together and graduated from St Stephen's together. We went from the little grade school to the "big" high school together, and we were proud to be the outsiders from St Helen's. He was a great teammate and classmate! During our football days, he was always just as excited as the running backs and quarterbacks when we were successful. And we were successful...

I only saw Mike occasionally since we graduated from St. Stephen Area High School in 1980. A true blessing came to me last summer when our paths crossed for an extended period of time. He shared his diagnosis with me with courage, which wasn't easy to do. I met his family who he clearly adored. During our time together, over a span of a couple of days, with all that he was going through, he demonstrated patience and compassion to all we were working with. I left with a greater gift and living...

I just read the sad news about Mike. He was a gentle giant. I pray that God will comfort you in this time of sorrow. Please know that the all of the Phelps Family are all in our thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace Mike.

Phelps family, on behalf of the children of Al and Louise Schneider, our deepest condolences. It has been many, many years since we've seen our second cousins. We wish you all, especially Mike's children, peace.

To have Mike as a friend was a true blessing. We will miss his laughter, his personality, and his friendship - but have many wonderful memories to fill the void in our hearts. Mike faced his cancer battle with great amount of courage. He loved all his family very much - and they loved him. Eternal Rest Grant Unto Him O Lord and Let Perpetual Light Shine Upon Him. May he now rest in peace in the arms of God.

May the memories of Mike and God´s grace bring comfort to his family and friends. Rest In Peace #73.
