I remember how funny Michael was. He could make you laugh so hard! He had these silly little twerks that he would display as he was just walking along, and look back to see if you were grinning :) My sincere condolences to the family. May God Bless His Soul.

My memories of Michael go back to the night he was born. I will always love you and will forever keep you in my heart. Tammy, my heart aches for you, Dale, his wife Angela, your mom, Dot, and all his family and friends. Michael was the sweetest, kindest, humorous, big hearted man that I had the pleasure of being in his life for all his life. I may not have seen him for months on end but when I did, he would always give me a hug and make me smile and laugh. I will miss you so much but I do have many memories that I will forever cherish! Much love to you forever and I know we will see each other again one day in Heaven. Tammy, my sister and cherished best friend, I love you more than you will ever know and I'm so sorry for this huge loss.

He was one of my first friends at Malesus elementary. He had such a sweet spirit and an awesome laugh. We shared many laughs throughout our years in school together, sometimes to the point of tears. I will always remember his kindness and laugh. Prayers for the family and his wife.
