I only had the privilege of meeting Michael a few times in the past two or so years, and I found him to be a quiet, caring gentleman. Once, we both sat on his sofa (just him and I) and watched the Patriots Football game together and at the same time had a great conversation.
He was a Mans Man. He Loved His Family and His Sports. My heart goes out to His Family and especially His Lisa and Ashleigh.............................Shirley's Guy, Jack

Mike what can a brother-in-law say but thank you so very much for taking care and loving my only sister. You were such a loving husband to her and I will be forever grateful for just how happy you made her. You were also a role model father. Your ability to always put family first was so inspirational. You were always there to lend a helping hand whenever needed. I know you will continue to watch down on all of us and please know that if your family needs anything I will be there. Rest In Peace brother. Love Geno

To Lisa and the entire MacBrayne Family. I am so sorry to hear about Mike's passing. My prayers are with you during this very difficult time. I had the pleasure of working with Mike for 16 years and have many fond memories of him. Mike my friend, you will truly be missed.

I could go on forever about how empty my life and my heart feels now that you’re no longer here with us. Everyday I wish more and more that I’ll round the corner upstairs and hear you say “hey sweetpea” or “I love you peanut” and be wrapped up in one of your hugs and everyday it becomes more and more clear that I won’t get that wish. Thank you for doing all that you did so that we could make all these amazing memories I have to look back on. I’m so grateful that you got to watch me fall in love with Ryan and give me away at our wedding. I know you knew I’d always be loved and protected with him and that we’d live an extremely happy life together. Absolutely nothing beats watching you become a Gramps to Eli though. He reminds us so much of you and I cling to that more each and every day. Thank you for setting such a great example of how to be a wonderful parent. I will strive to make you proud in everything I do for the rest of my life. I love and miss you so much Dad.

I had the absolute pleasure of caring for Michael when he would come into CMC for his weekly appointments. We would just spend the time talking about life and family. He was always so proud and thankful for his family and would update me on his new grandchild. He was a very kind man and I was so sad to hear of his passing. I am honored to have known him and to have cared for him. I send my deepest condolences to the MacBrayne family. He will be remembered.
