To all of the Marvel Family - Please accept our deepest sympathy at Michael's passing. We all know of the "good fight" - the fight may have been lost here on earth, but in Heaven, where we know Michael is, that battle has been won. God took Michael so there would be more suffering here but a joyous eternity. God rest his warm heart, loving nature and just general kindness to all here "on the street" where he lived. I hope Roland shared our story about my cell phone ringer "Singing in the rain" We are so sorry that we weren't able to be with you but I'm sure you know why - God bless you all with peaceful hearts. Joe and Theresa Oprocha

We are sorry to hear of Mike's passing. He was truly a great guy with a huge heart. He was a kind man who could talk to you like he saw you yesterday, even if it had been years. His smile and warmth will be missed. We are glad to say that in our time on earth we were able to call him our friend. God Bless You, Mike.
