Michael A. Silverman

I am shocked to have just learned today (8/25/16) of Mike's passing. He was a brilliant and tireless worker who was dedicated to his company. My condolences to Kim and her family. --KT Boyle

It's hard to believe that Mike passed. He was such a friendly, positive, and smart person. I met him probably around 1986. I started a GTE Gov't Systems a few months before he did. And we both started our careers working in the Reliability and Components Departments. Mike suggested I move to the Americana where we became friends. We played table tennis together regularly and had competitive matches. We were good friends and he never had a bad word for anyone. He was so positive. It...

Kim, Shaelyn and Shawn-I am sorry to hear of your husband/father's passing. He loved to share your family adventures with me at his appointments. I hope that you all find comfort as time moves forward. Respectfully, Kari Davenport (dental hygienist)

Mike was always a good friend, and ready with that terrific smile and laugh to brighten a room. I am very sorry to lose you, bud.

I'm extremely sorry to hear of Mike's passing. He was an an energetic and exciting individual to be around. He will be missed around the world by the many people who have had the benefit of spending some time with him. My condolences to his family.

Sorry to hear the sad news, at such a young age, and heart-felt condolences to his loved ones, his extended family, close friends and colleagues. I enjoyed meeting Mike at seminars and conferences, and was always impressed by his willingness to share his expanding knowledge and promote good design-for-reliability practices. Mike will be missed by many around the world.

This is tremendously shocking; I'd known Mike since he started OALC and considered him to be a extraordinary source of information and expertise, as well as a great guy. Heck, I had coffee with him here in San Francisco within the past year to catch up and discuss business. I can't believe he's gone.

You will be sorely missed by all who had the fortune of knowing you. I wish your family the very best.

I met Mike first time in 1995 while he was working for Centigram and running the reliability lab in Santa Clara. He was a great friend and a mentor. I learn lot from him. I contr4acted his services in quite a few companies because I always knew he was the person I could count on to educate others to understand the fundamental of Reliability. Thru him, I met lot of other experts. I feel so depressed and sad to hear of his passing away and it's hard to believe. He was a great person in...
