Mary and family, I am terribly saddened to learn of Mike's passing. Mary, when I opened your Christmas card, with only your name signed, my heart fell. Mike was always taking time with the 4 Mahorner hoodlums in Neely Farm. He loved to tease them, and they loved to visit him in your driveway. He gave young John and Nate rides in his restored car, and could often times be found talking about golf, working a puzzle, "tinkering" in his garage, or enjoying a Coors Light. He lived a full and wonderful life, in which he loved, and was very proud of, his family. He was a good friend and neighbor to me, and always got a twinkle in his eye when I brought him apple pies. I am deeply sorry for your huge loss. Fondly, Judi, John, John, Nate, Lucy Brynn and Andrew

Prayers for the soul of Mr. Michael Krill. Though I did not know him personally, I have been an admirer of his son, Fr. Jude Michael, during the many years he said mass at St. David the King Church, West Windsor, NJ. He is a man of wisdom, kind, well-spoken, entertaining, a most admirable representative of God on earth. Having produced a son like Fr. Jude tells me that Mr. Krill was a good and righteous man. May he rest in peace.

Our condolences to Mary on the loss of her partner. Mike was such a good friend to our daughter, Mary, and her children when they were neighbors in Neeley Farm. His sense of humor was hard to beat.

I would like to express my condolences to the Krill family. During this time of great sadness, I hope that the family find comfort from James 4:8. It says, "Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you." May you all look to God during this difficult time.

Mary and Family, Gini, Ellis, Jay and I are saddened to learn of Mike's passing. Mike was a very special next-door neighbor. I fondly remember the times we spent discussing business and golf and old cars. Most significantly, he was a "grandfather in residence" for our boys. Jay, now grown, called him "Mr. Kwill," and Mike loved it. He loved teasing them and being teased (except for the day that Jay and Chip threw dirt in the car he was restoring). We will certainly miss him. We are thinking of you and praying for you in this time of sorrow.

We have many fond memories of our brother-in-law Mike and the one we talk about is the Sunday that we visited them in Conshohocken and our sons would be all dressed up in white shoes and socks and toddler expensive clothing and he would take them to the park down the street and when they came back they had brown shoes, brown socks & of course a ton of dirt on their outfits. He would laugh his head off seeing the expressions on my face. A big tease and loved by all of us. Mike will be surely missed. Edward, Marge, Ned and Kevin.

I am saddened to learn of Mike's passing. He was a mentor to me when I worked for him back in 1984 and again when he sent me to Puerto Rico. He had a big heart and a keen sense of humor.

October 26, 2011

My deepest condolences, I have very fond memories of your father/husband growing up, taking all the kids for rides to Tucker's Farm, busting on my dad all the time, etc.. Still think if all of you whenever I visit my father on 13h ave.
