May God's Peace be with you and may the life that Mike lived be in your hearts forever. Yes, Mike is absent from this world but through the good and bad times he had to endured let his memories live on. Mike was a person who just was Mike - no matter what the situation he found himself in. He did not let the situation make him, he made the best of the situation. It is my prayer that this characteristic of Mike's be developed in you as we honor the life that he lived. May God be with you and keep you during this time of beareavement. Coworker and friend at OPM.

Mike will be missed - I had only known him since July 2012, and he acted as if he had known me my entire life. That was Mike! He was friendly and funny, but most of all a true person. I am sad that he is gone as he truly touched me in a special way. I thank God for the time he shared Mike with us. May God continue to bless and keep the family and friends of Mike during their time of bereavement .

Michael, you were our special friend and your loving memories will always live in our heart. Sorry you had to leave us so suddenly, but God knows best. Our destiny is truly in His hands although we will never truly understand. He is too loving to be unkind and too wise to make any mistakes. Remembering you always!

I had the opportunity to visited with Bro. Michael Taylor when he was first addmitted to Georgetown Hospital. He was so ill. However God still worked miracles as I followed up with his friend and our member Bro. Thomas Temple. Our prayers have been with him and now with his family as you go through this period of saddness.
