Michael; I went on line looking for you, to see if your office was still in Inglewood, but my heart was broken to find out you had passed away. My deepest condolences to your family. You were such a kind and beautiful person. I will never forget you and the love you had for others. May you rest in peace.

I received a letter in the mail today from Ms. Courtney and was shocked to learn that you passed 6 months ago. You were such an honest and incredibly nice person. My parents led me to you when I needed a tax professional and you far exceeded my expectations. Ever the consummate professional, you always welcomed me into your office with a huge smile and I never left without a hug. I still can't believe you're gone. I offer my condolences to your loved ones and may God comfort them during this time. You will truly be missed Mr. Pipkins.

Pikins family,
I don't even know what to say....I just found out that Mike passed. Pipkins as I called him was like a father to me and has been doing my taxes for 12 years since I've been in California.
He was the BEST! He loved his kids, his grand kids, his family, his ranch and his clients.
I'm SO sad that I just heard. I just saw him a few weeks before he passed and he was fine. I just CAN'T believe it!!
My heart is SO HEAVY!
I pray God covers you all.
God Bless!!!

To the Family,
Please know you are in the prayers of so many of the class of '69. Michael's kindred spirit will certainly live on as well as his legacy through his children and grandchildren. To reiterate what Janice said, I too had not seen him in along time but know we lost another great classmate. Please take solace in knowing he's in God arms now and all is right. You have my deepest sympathy.

Michael, you will truly be missed. I will never forget the good old days when you use to come to our house all the time. How crazy and proud you were about Mukkie(Erika). I remember when you would take us to Burger King and for a ride. Also, you love to take all those pictures of Mukkie and us when she was a baby. I still have all those pictures you took of me. We would love to see you come. You even let me drive your Car Vet. I just wanted to reflect on the good times. Thanks for being a wonderful father to our Erika and the grandkids. You will truly be missed.
