Dear Linda,

I am so sorry to hear of dear sweet Mike's passing. My heart goes out to you. I can only think of you as the youngsters we were together way back in Greenville and that makes his passing even harder to beleive. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are for you and that you are loved.

Mike was everywhere at McKesson. When I first met him in 1993 he was constantly on the road doing audits or working on projects. At the same time he was always longing to be back home with Linda.



When he finally moved to the east bay I would see him on BART, and he would sit with me or I with him. We didn't read the paper - we talked, and he always listened.



Mike will be missed.



Too Young,

Too Soon,

With greatest sympathy, just remember that God is still standing by and will be with you. I did not know him directly, but when an employee of Mckesson passes on to glory, as part of the McKesson famly we all do care.



May you continue to be lifted up in Christ.

I will miss Mike very much. I took over Mike's old job when I started with McKesson. Mike was a kind and gracious person and he helped me immensely in understanding the position I was filling and several months after was still involved and available to help with any issues. He would always speak fondly about his love of track and field and the mentoring he did associated with the sport. I was blessed to know him and work with him.

Dear Linda and family,



It was with shock and sadness that I learned of Mike's passing. I have worked with him at McKesson on several projects over the years including a visit he made to our facility in Washington state. I will always remember him as an intelligent and kind person. My deepest sympathy for you at this time of your great loss.



May time heal your sorrow

May friends ease your pain

May peace replace heartache

May warmest memories remain



Sincerely,

Kay Bourdon

Michael was a warm and friendly personality here at work and I enjoyed many long conversations with him about running, sports and wildlife. He was always interested in the lives of those around him and would often read-up on things you discussed for future conversations. He will be missed.
