Beautiful personality & beautiful smile that would light up a whole room! You was so funny & always made everybody laugh. (Even if their spirits was down, you’d say just the right thing to uplift them.) You was more like a brother than my cousin, since early childhood and I thank God for the great laughs and amazing memories that we did share. Everyone whom path that you crossed, you bought joy to them & made them smile/laugh. You’ll never be forgotten!! I miss you fam. May God be with your children, Mother and all of our family. Rest Easy Mike B, I Love You.

Michael was everything a human being should be. I've told the story about Michael defending me against a bully for 25 years now. He is truly a hero in my eyes and helped make me the person I am. I was blessed to finally find him on Facebook and thank him a few months ago.
