Not sure what to say?

Michael, it's been 15 years since you passed away and I still think about you like it was yesterday. Such a complex human being, such a fine pianist, a perfectionist, we rode through an earthquake together at St Stephens with you on the piano and me with my violin. Remember? I still miss you and I have your beads and your tonkas. I wonder what you are doing now? Laura

Michael, your beautiful spirit is ever present with us. Through you, God's Word came alive and warmed our hearts and lit a path before and within us - the very path of Jesus' love. You had the gift of taking the most complex theological insights and simplifying them without diminishing their depth.

My condolences to his family. During his too short life, he was a blessings to many.

Dear Roy and Joyce--perhaps you will remember me from Cali, where my brothers and I grew up with Debbi at the Bolivar. Michael was older so it wasn't till later, when he was at Colegio Bennett, that I got to know him.

I am heart sick learning of Michael's death. He had preached at my ordination as an Episcopal priest several years ago here in Ft Lauderdale. In the last two years we played phone tag a couple of times and exchanged a handful of emails. But I got busy and it was...
