Not sure what to say?

I haven't seen Mike since the years right after high school but, what a guy. We skied together for those years during school, then I lost track of him. But I always remember him for being gregarious and fun-loving. The innocence of those days are great memories that I wish I had the chance to live over again in stories over a beer. My condolences to everyone affected by his loss and my wish to you, Mike to rest in peace.

Michael was more than just a hairdresser. He was the man I looked forward to seeing and sharing stories with every six weeks. He had that winning smile and jovial manner that could cheer up the gloomiest of days. He will be missed by so many. RIP, Michael. Dianne Cline

Michael was the first person who took a chance on letting me sell my jewelry at The River's Edge Salon when I was first starting my beauty supply many years ago. He was always friendly and kind to me and I pray he is resting in peace. Kathy Shireman

I just learned of Michaels passing yesterday and am still in shock. I can't quit crying with the realization that I will never see his sweet smile and that twinkle in his eye when I walk though that door & how he loomed over me when he stood up. He was my hairdresser for over 25 years, since the River's Edge days, but he was much more than that. He was my friend, my confidant and one of the most interesting, genuine & kind men I have ever met. We shared so many conversations & laughs over...

My heart has been filled with sadness today, as I found out just last night my friend, Michael, left us forever. Thank you for your gentle spirit, caring ways, funny stories, and creating beauty with my hair. I will miss baking cookies for you, but mostly I will miss YOU! Much love...

Michael was a dear friend, one of the kindest men I have ever known. My heart is broken, I can't believe he's gone. I will miss him terribly. We will always love you Michael.

Michael cut my hair for a number of years. He was always such a kind, caring person; a friend to many. I will miss him and my heart goes out to all of his loved ones. What a hard loss.

Rest in peace dear cousin , too soon...
