Michael H. Remy

Dear Friends & Family

My mother and I will always treasure the kindness of your words, the comfort of your stories and the solidarity of your support. Michael reveled in storytelling, so to hear stories lovingly told of him brings back fond memories and lightens our hearts. Situations such as funerals never afford the time we would have liked to share more warmth and memories with all of you so we look forward to seeing you again in better times to come.

The City Attorney's Office in San Rafael got to know Mr. Remy through several land use and planning issues he handled for us. I just want to extend my sincere sympathies to his family for their loss. He was a courteous, friendly, smart and respectful person to deal with. I know that his legal expertise will be greatly missed.

Dear Trudy and Camille,

I found the April 6th memorial service for Mike to be quite emotional for me, but also very necessary and extremely uplifting. Both the service and reception that followed were wonderfully done, and I thank you and those who assisted you in giving everyone who attended a chance to join you in honoring this great husband, father, mentor, business associate and friend.

I couldn’t agree more with what the speakers at the memorial service and...

My condolences to the family and to Mike's co-workers. He was a splendid person and it was a privilege knowing him.

The following are notes prepared in anticipation of remarks made in remembrance of Mike Remy on April 6, 2000.

It was my great privilege to work with Mike Remy for the past seventeen years, first as an eager disciple, and later as an always deferential junior partner. In the last few days, as I have felt the sharp pangs of loss, and have received almost countless consoling messages, I’ve come to appreciate even more deeply than before just how great a privilege that was. I...

Michael,

It is with great sadness that I say goodbye to a wonderful, talented, dedicated and caring soul. You were an inspiration to me in your professional activities and your passing will be missed deeply by everyone in the environmental community and even more, in our lives. Peace be with you.

Losing Mike is without a doubt a great loss to his family and friends. Mike was a good man and kind. He represented our District with great knowledge and care. It is our loss, also. Thank you for letting us know him.

Mike first indirectly touched my life when he came to my hometown of Squaw Valley in the mid-1980's to help in the fight to save Shirley Canyon from skiers & logging. Each time I hike or snowshoe up the Canyon I thank Mike from the bottom of my heart.

Mike has since taught me an enormous amount about CEQA as an associate with RT&M. More importantly, however, Mike taught me that one can remain a decent, honest, and humble person, yet a strong and accomplished advocate. For that,...

Dear Trudy and Family:
We were deeply saddened to learn of your great loss. Though we only met Mike once, we know the very positive impact he made upon my daughter Michelle, who is married to your nephew Brian. She so often speaks of you and Mike with genuine love, respect and admiration. We regret that we did not have the opportunity to get to know him, but I am thankful for his kindnesses. Be assured that you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
