Memories and Condolences
for Michael Player

His very quiet presence shall be greatly missed; and he said what he meant and was right to the point when he wished. That he loved you so is what stood out for me. The perfect example of a husband is who Michael will always be. I love you, my precious cousin, and just know prayers are out-pouring as you make this difficult adjustment. And Mike's with our God now; to many his life on earth was a great testament.

I am extremely saddened by the loss of Michael, however, I am heartened by the fact that he is now with the Lord. Michael loved is God, he loved his family, and he loved his fraternity. As a fellow Eta Kappa alumnus, I will miss his wit, his candor, and his sage advice.

It's Hard to know just what to say at this sad time because your loss is so great and because your love one will be missed in so many ways. But even though no words can truly comfort you, perhaps they can, in some small way express the depth of care and concern that's felt for you now.
The Lord is gracious and righteous: our God is full of compassion. Psalm 116:5

Michael, it still seems like yesterday when we strolled the halls at La. Tech. It was a blessing to find you again after I moved to Texas, although we always kept in touch over the years. I will miss you, but rest assured, I will never forget you. Mike, anyone that knew you knew that you were the one to always do what he could...at home, at work, at school, in the Frat. You were the one who had everyone's phone number or email address or some way to contact them. You believed in keeping close ties. Be blessed in your journey and Sleep Well for now, my friend!

You were the best Brother anyone could ask for. I will miss our early morning conversations when you finished the mid-night shift and I was preparing for the day shift. Take your rest my dear Brother and I'll see you on the other side. DEWITT Jr.
