To the Porter family,
Esperamos que la partida demasiado temprana de un gran líder como Mr. Michael Porter no haya evitado que alcancen algo de consuelo por esta triste y lamentable pérdida.

Forty or so years ago I vowed to someday look up Mike and Mary so I could apologize in person for missing their wedding. What a wonderful couple! I continued to think I was going to try to reconnect with them until this week, when I stumbled upon this obituary on the Internet. I am shaken by this. Saying sorry seems so inadequate now, but I want to say I hope Mary and all family members find consolation in happy memories.

Conoci a Michael Porter con ocasion del trabajom de nuestra pequeña firma de Psicologia Aolicada a la Seguridad. Valoro muchisimo su comprension y apoyo en nuestro trabajo que comprendio perfectamente y diseminó con gran exito por todas las Plantas de Goodyear alrededor del mundo.
Por su dedicacion, calidad humana y profesionalismo le considero un modelo que deberia inspirar a las futuras generaciones de empleados de Goodyear.
En PERSIST LTD. lamentamos profundamente su temprana partida y nos sentimos cerca de su familia ante esta irreparable perdida.
Michael, un hombre bueno, una contraparte justa y comprensiva, descansa en paz.

My deepest sympathy for your loss

I worked for Goodyear and for Mike in a variety of roles - at various pivotal points in my early career, Mike provided much needed insight, guidance, mentorship and opportunity.

He was instrumental and influential in my career development and choices. I will always be thankful for the investment he made in me personally and the valuable advice he provided.

He will certainly be missed.
You and your family are in our prayers. God Bless.

Mary,Adam,Matt, Family
If everyone was listed who is heartbroken and crying since we heard about Mike, there wouldn't be enough space in newspaper for all of the names. Your loss makes us weep, because we all know this is our loss too. My love for your family is just one broken heart, times that by 1000's. Your my family, your all cherished, your all in my thoughts and prayers.

We were very sorry to hear of your loss, Mary. Having hired Mike into Goodyear in 1984, I knew him very well. He was at once a gentleman, honorable and dedicated to his profession, his family and his faith. Jorjean and I will keep you and your family in our prayers. God Bless.
