Dear Sherri & Boys,
We can't begin to tell you how sorry we were to hear about Mike's recent passing. We became acquainted with Mike when he worked at Sherwin Williams. He worked so hard to please his customers and was such a great guy! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

To Mike's Entire Family:
I am so sorry and saddened over Mike's sudden death. Mike and I are third cousins and spent many summers together as kids, when our families came together in Marion, VA, where Mike's grandparents lived. He was such a cute boy and always full of mischief. While we grew apart over the years, as cousins often do, he stopped over in Roanoke to visit my Mom a few years ago. He was always a caring and loving young man. My heart goes out to his wife and children, to his...

My sister Susan and I (Pamela) are so so saddened by the loss of Michael Wolfe. We lived across the street from The Wolfe's and were really close with their whole family. Mike use to skin squirrels in front of us and it grossed us out. They are such a great family. When you think of an old friend and how they used to be, Michael always was happy and always had a smile on his face. He was such a great guy... Our prayers are with you during this difficult time. God Bless you and your...

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Johnny, Jerry, Jamie and Dave hunted with Mike and the boys. They use to come home and talk about how Mike would bring the boys hunting and how much they love it. Mike will surely be missed by the Three Shot Hunt Club.

I am saddened and shocked by Mike's sudden death. Mike and I were in the same 3rd grade class (and other classes in future years) and I remember him with great fondness. Many years later I had the opportunity to meet and work with Sheri so I had the chance to visit with Mike again at the company picnic. I was impressed with how great he was to Sherri and the boys. A class act! I know he will be missed by many. Sheri, your family is included in my prayers.
