Michael A. Roderick

To the Roderick Family

I am deeply sorry for your loss.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael at Dunkin. He was a kind and caring man always available to chat and share ideas.

I wish you all healing and peace during this painful time.

I was saddened to learn of Michael's sudden passing. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I have good memories of working with Michael on the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church Congregation Council in years past.

Meredith,
My heart is broken for you and your boys. Please know that I'm praying for your family and will continue to do so.

Love and sincere condolences from Kennedy-Donovan Center, Cape Cod

You will be missed

Our thoughts & prayers are with you all. Sending love from Sydney, Australia xoxo

Michael was an absolute joy to work with at Dunkin. The most helpful and genuine person. Rest in peace. Saying Prayers for you all at this time.

Meredith, I do not know you personally but I was a mom who carpooled Michael to school. I was always so aware of his kind, gentle light. I was so proud when I saw him for him the first time After I no longer carpooled him, he was a teller at North Easton Savings Bank. Then, I over joyed with grateful humility when we met up again at Grace Church so many years later, and so giddy to see him at Cupcake Charlie's. He has always been one of those sunbeams that penetrated the circles of my life and one whose smile made me smile. I am heartbroken over the news of this wonderful, sweet young man and even more heartbroken for you and the boys.

I know however, because you have joined the Grace family, that you know God will sustain you. It may not feel like it now but His love is with you and will always be with you. His plan is greater, His love is greater. I wish I could take away your sorrow and pain. Please accept my condolences and sympathy.

Mike and I went to school together our whole lives, starting in Kindergarten. As everyone has stated, Mike was one of the kindest, most caring, selfless human beings I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. If I was having a bad day, a short conversation with Mike could turn it around. To say he'll be missed is an understatement. My heart breaks for his family. Sending them lots of love at this unimaginably difficult time. Rest easy, Mike. ❤

I didn't know Michael for very long, but for the short time we worked together, he left a forever imprint on me. He had an incredibly genuine spirit that was set on always helping others. That shined through even when tough conversations had to happen. Before long, he shared that he was a man of faith. I felt like I didn't even need to hear it because I knew it all long. His actions spoke louder than his words. He put his fellow teammates first and never thought twice about setting aside time to help someone else succeed. I saw it so many times. I'm thankful to have crossed paths with him.
Rest in peace Michael. I will be praying for you, and your family.

Michael's family: I'm so sorry for your loss. May all the wonderful memories bring a smile to your faces at this difficult time.

Rest easy Michael

Rest In Peace, sweet, gentle and kind man. I was always so appreciative of all the coaching you offered me. And it wasn't just me. You wanted so much for whoever you were helping even if they gave up on themselves. I will never forget you and all the good times and laughs. And we butted heads, but we both always got passed it and it was business (and friendship) as usual. Your unwavering support when I just needed to vent someone about things in my personal life. I miss your handwritten notes and and birthday hugs. I still have every note card you ever gave me and I'll never part with them.

I known you are at peace. And I know we'll meet again someday.

Godspeed, Michael

What a beautiful obituary. It could not have been written any better. Such a true and genuine way to portray the beautiful person he was. He has been and will always be missed.

We are just so saddened by this wonderful young man's passing. Michael was just an incredible friend to our family and especially a best friend to our son Bobby. As a youngster, Michael, along with his parents, Les, and Carol, made special accommodations for Bobby, whom was afflicted with Duchene's muscular dystrophy so many times at their house. Michael was like a 3rd son to us, always being a great presence that added joy to our lives. So many games at Frothingham Park, playing baseball, trip in his wheelchair, etc..
Such an incredible loss to his family that will linger on, but we will remember the greatness and positive demeanor he had on all. Rest in peace young man. We pray all his family will have great resolve in this extreme hardship that his sudden death has caused! All the Coe's love you and your family.

SME, I can't remember a time that I didn't know you or that you weren't just a "click" away. I can't remember a time that you forgot my work anniversary, or a Mother's Day that you didn't wish me well, or a Father's Day that I didn't reach out to you. All our lunches, our chats, SO many laughs, all that you taught me when I first came to Dunkin', all that I taught you that you thanked me for, our weddings, our friends' weddings, your 30th bday, your 40th bday, Lady Gaga, and a million other things are memories that I'll remember so fondly. You did so much good for so many, and I'm proud to have known you and called you my friend.
Rest easy, "MB" xo

Michael I loved our political banter on Facebook and so enjoyed you coming to the Shiva events I hosted ... Your smile was bright and will continue to shine through all of us who cared for you ... Rest In Peace my Friend and God's Speed ...

Michael,
I will always remember your smile and compassion for others.. You were certainly one of my favorite children to coach, one I will never forget, because of your delightful personality and love of the game of baseball. May you rest in peace.

We are so very sorry for your loss. God Bless him and RIP.

I attended school with Mike, and will always remember his as one of the true good people in this world. He always had a friendly smile and was genuinely kind and caring to everyone he met. I never heard him speak ill of anyone. His passing is such a tragedy, but I hope that his family can take some comfort in the memories that he leaves behind.

Gone but not forgotten

I love you to pieces Uncle Mike. Always have, always will. May you rest in the sweetest peace! Xoxo
