To the Nolan family,
Kathy & I are so sorry for your loss. We will miss Mike.
I knew and worked with Mike for over 35 years. We had a lot of fun working at the old PG&E and had a blast at all the PSEA functions and were looking forward to weather changing so we could Golf on a weekly basis after he retired. Mike will be missed by all that knew him.

To the Nolan Family

I am so sorry for your loss of a great guy. I worked with Mike at PG&E for a little while to find out that he knew my Dad. He also worked with many of my in laws. I used to run into all the time at the grocery store when I lived in Pleasanton. He will be deeply missed by many. He aways had a way to put a smile on your face no matter how bad your day was going.

Michelle-
We're so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a bright force here on earth, and is definitely a shining star in the heavens now. We will miss hearing of his adventures and laughing along with him. His humor and zest for life will definitely be missed. Know that he is still with you, and will always be.
