Dear Arlene,
We just heard about your loss of Michael. Since we met years ago as co-workers for Steven Pearl, and although we moved across the country to Arizona and rarely have had the opportunity to speak, over the years we have appreciated and valued the warmth of your friendship.
Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family, and may you find some comfort to ease your grief by fondly recalling your cherished memories of Michael.
Love, Karen and Gary

Arlene, Keith and Bradley,

It's been 28 years since we last saw each other and now to hear of the passing of Michael. Our hearts go out to you and the family.

Mike was a great father, a great neighbor and a great human being. We remember fondly all the fun of being young with young children on Maple Lane even to sharing the snowblower around the block.

With the passing of Mike it makes us all the sorrier that we did not keep in touch. Please accept our...

Arlene, Keith & Bradley -

It's been more then 25 years since we spent time together, but how could I forget how amazing Michael was! My earliest memories in life include spending Chanukah together with our families, birthday parties, etc.

I have a very strong memory of Michael, it is wrapped in honesty, fairness and kindness.

So sorry for your loss, remembering Michael is to know the large family that you have become was the dearest thing to him.

Dear Arlene, Keith and Brad...It was with great shock and despair when we learned about your terrible loss. Mike was such a sweetheart and we always remember what terrific friends and neighbors you were to us when we lived next door on Rebecca Lane. He was taken from you much too early.

Arlene and family, I am so sorry to hear about Michael's passing. Although we rarely saw each other, I will always remember his kindness and how he touched our lives. Our deepest condolences. Cousin Jacque Rabin Spector and family.

My name is Jeff Hoffman and I was a club brother of Mike for over 50 years. I lived in Skokie and we were in the Funny Fellows. I live in Las Vegas and I saw Mike at the end of last year when the guys came out. It was good to see him, I had not seen him in many, many years. My condolences to Arlene and your family. Mike was very a devoted employee of Gary's, he was very good hearted, and spoke highly of every one in the club. He will be missed by all of us Funny Fellows and I. He was...

To the Rabin Family.
My wife, Tracy, my children, Jack and Bethany, and I are so sorry for your loss. As a longtime friend of Brad, Mike was part of my life growing up. I wish my wife and children would have had the opportunity to know him. My childhood revolved around Main Northfield Little League and sleeping over at the Rabin's on the weekends. Mike was such a great part of my childhood. I will miss him. We wish you so much love. Mike was a great man.

Dear Arlene
When Ilene shared with me what was happening to Michael I was in shock. His loss to you and your family is devastating and I have no words that can bring comfort at this time. What I will take with me are all the simchas Alex & I shared along with you and Mike and the Olswang family.Most resent the brunch at Ilene's, where Mikes' infectious laugh and smile defined who he was in life. With much affection to you and your family Sharon & Alex Zeid
