To the Ritchie Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I went to CHS with Mike and was able to reconnect with him several years ago on his UPS route through Westfield. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word. My condolences to his family and friends.

To Mike's Family & Friends, my sincere condolences. He was always such a nice person who's smile could light up a room. I went to Cathedral w/ Michael and have so many fond memories of him that make me smile. A kind, gentle soul that will be missed by many but mostly his family. It is a sad day and I am so sorry for your loss.

Tamie and Nicholas, my thoughts/prayers go out to you both.

Mike and I were friends all through high school and even after I got out of the Army. I remember the days of him trying to poison us in his "Green Rambler" as the smoke poured in from the floorboard! That thing was ridiculous! As was the Falstaff we drank on occasion. There are no bad stories about Mike Ritchie, just funny ones. He was a good man and was always laughing or smiling at something. My only dissapointment is...

We are very sorry to hear of your loss, Our thoughts and prayers are with you,

Tamie,

Please remember if there is anything we can do to help, just call. We will be praying for you and your family.

In Friendship & Sorrow,

Words cannot say how saddened we were to hear of Mike's passing. He was such a wonderful kid and part of a wonderful family. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
