Our thoughts have been with you these past days..I'll never forget how Mike helped us get Jason and Nick started in the "Great Sport" of Hockey. I knew nothing. From there he was always asking how things were going and how the boys doing. His sense of humor was so unforgettable..Like the time he pranked my phone pretending he was
"Julie" in a fake girl voice. He's still in my cell as "Julie" and it
will stay there forever..God Bless him.He will be missed.:.{ Ann Jay

Dear Aunt Mary and Uncle Eddie -
I was sorry not to have the chance to offer my condolences personally at the mass. The service was very touching, especially Mike's brother-in-law giving his memories. Though I hadn't seen Mike often in recent years, I've always remembered him fondly, and it's good to know that he was so well thought of and loved by so many people.

He is a man we profoundly respect and always will. God Bless you all in this impossibly sad time. We will always remember Mike with the happiest memories.

I am so sorry for your loss. Mike was so respected and admired. As a fellow goalie and goalie Dad I was honored to call Mike a friend. He will be missed terribly behind the bench, in the net, on the ice with the boys and in all our lives. God bless you and keep you.

Dear Sue, It is with great sadness that I share my thoughts and prayers with you and your family. I always looked forward to seeing Michael during my visits to Kenmore – my home town. That big smile of his, small talk about cigars, golf, hockey and family, all will be missed. May God grant you peace and a way forward as time passes on.

Ben, Alex, and Mrs. Sawicki,
I don't think that I can even put into words how sorry I am for what happened. Mr. Sawicki truly was a wonderful and generous person. Throughout all of the years in hockey that I've had the honor of knowing your family, Mr. Sawicki was always one of my favorites among hockey parents. He never talked to me or any of the other brothers and sisters like we were kids. He took the time to actually have conversations with us, making us all feel like we were important. He will certainly live on through the many lives that he has touched. I'm so sorry that I couldn't be in Buffalo during this time, but I want you to know that I am thinking of all of you and that I wish you all the very best.
Always,
Amanda Ziemann

I could not believe when I heard of Mike's passing. I enjoyed his friendship, company and support during the past 6 years I have known him. He was always happy and positive and I loved the times we coached hockey together. I miss him very much, and his passing is a great loss to Amherst Hockey.
He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
