Not sure what to say?

Deeply shocked and saddened to receive the news of Mike's passing. My prayers go out to all his friends and family. I will always remember him as a gentle and kind man and as a hardworking team leader whom I relied on heavily during our time together working at Ogilvy Action. Thanks Mike for sharing your light, your wisdom and your laughter with all that knew you! God Bless!

Dear Zapf Family,

I worked with Mike a few times and thought he was such a great guy with a big smile. My boyfriend Josh particularly bonded with him at work events and we are both so sad to hear this news. We will miss him. Sending our thoughts and prayers to you.

Dear Zapf Family, Mike was a great guy, a good friend and a dedicated manager. He was a great cook and a terrific repair man. He was a perfectionist it always had to be perfect if Mike did it. He will be missed. He was loved by all.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Zapf family! Mike was a joy and pleasure to work with at Productions Plus! He was my go to guy! Whenever I needed to staff a demonstration at the last minute, he was always willing to do it. Mike I am glad to have called you my friend!!!! You will always be my "Go to Guy"!!!

Dave, I am sorry to hear of your loss. I have always found comfort in the following prayer. May that be true for you and your family.
May the raindrops fall lightly on your brother's brow.
May the soft winds freshen his spirit
May the sunshine brighten his heart
May the burdens of the day rest lightly upon him.
And may God enfold him in the mantle of His love.

Dear Marie and your entire family.
You are in our thoughts and prayers at your time of sorrow.

Dear Dave and Family, sorry for your loss. I will miss Michael here at the Countryside Condos. He was a really nice guy. My prayers go out to you and your family.

Mike, I have so many great memories of our hilarious and adventuresome times together. You, my friend were completely genuine. Your kind heart, great sense of humor and your loving spirit has been such a gift to all of us who had the pleasure of knowing you. The Holy Spirit spoke to me and told me you are in complete joy and having a great time in Heaven. Love you.
