Michael E. Treptow

We were Mike's customers. We were hoping what we heard wasn't true. We are deeply sorry for your great loss! Since my husband was at work and I was home I had the privilege to have realy nice conversations with him. I'll never forget how his face lit up when he would talk about his children and his grandson! Our grandson lives with us most of the time and we enjoyed sharing grandsons stories. It was a privilege to know Mike and if we feel the pain that he's not with us, how much much more...

Michael,
Just another e-mail from two more who love you and think the world of you. Thanks for all the times you shared Christmas and Thanksgiving with us in our home. When you walked though the door with your big beautiful smile and the Italian pastries, we knew we were in for a good time. One thing though, I know you always said you were my favorite nephew, but I never remember hearing who your favorite aunt was!! I'll question you about that some day.

I hope you know how...

Michael, we love you and miss you a whole bunch, especially your beautiful smile and your ability to make everyone around you happy. You really are just a big kid and that was evident at all the family reunions when the little kids would gravitate to you and you opened your arms to them all. What precious memories they will have of you. You were never too busy to lend a hand to us when we needed something fixed or babysit fat Louie (Bubba when he was still around-by the way if he's with...

Dear Mike,
It's nearly a month and we have all made it through. One step,one day,that is what they say. You are still in my thoughts daily, some days easier than others. Your presence still permeates my home. Closing the door to your room doesn't keep you out.
Your guest book will be closing soon, that's fine. I think I'll take a lesson from you and start a journal of my own. A place to channel my thoughts on paper. I will continue to watch over everyone for you, just please continue...

They say everything in life happens for a reason, Did i ever believe that before this past week? No, but now i kind of do! Life is precious and everything happens for a reason..That reason might stay unknown for awhile but eventually we will all understand..I miss my Dad more then life itself, and I wish I could get just one more chance to tell him how much he truly meant to me, But i can do that everyday now because he is watching over us, he is now our angel guys!. He is at peace now! An...

Mike I miss you and wish you were here. You touched so many lives as was evident at your viewing. I know you were up there just shaking your head and saying I remember you, how ya doin, you look good. While it was hard for us it brought about a closure and some peace. You were truly loved by all those you touched. Matt's leaving the front porch light on for you so you can find your way home. Stop by sometime, your alway welcome.
Love your Sis, Cathy

Tom, Barb and family

Our deepest sympathy to you all. You are in our hearts and prayers.

Maddy and George

Michael,
As I was flying home to North Carolina after we laid you to rest, I was
looking out the window high above the clouds, it was so peaceful and
serene. I know your at peace now and smiling down at us. There
will be no more "Hi Sis" calls on my birthday, Mother's Day and
holidays from you. I do cherish our family memories of us growing
up on Cleveland Avenue and most recently the family cruise. I will see
you again and until then, watch down upon us all and we'll...

I've learned One's life has profound meaning and a purpose, even if some of us are not sure what it is right now. That's part of the reason we are here. To learn and accept our mission in life. Once you begin to see clearer little miracles will start to happen that help us understand the reason's why events in our lives are meant to be.Its god's plan. So to all those who Love Michael we will always remember: His happy smile, and the twinkle in his big blue eyes and the special way he touched...
