Michael Keating "Mick" Metzger

Mick was a wonderful neighbor. When my husband left, Mick was there to teach me how to trim my hedges. He also instructed me how to place a ladder correctly so my grandson could clean out my gutters. On different occasions, he even trimmed my hedge as an act of service. He joined his whole family in being such sweet, helpful, and loving neighbors. I was shocked to learn of his passing, and my heart goes out to his family. I know how much he will be missed by everyone who knew him.

I worked with Mike for many years when he was Captain at the Sheriff´s Office and I was working in the Weld County Human Resources Department. He was proficient at handling personnel problems and hiring correction officers. I was happy to assist him in any way I could. He was a wonderful man to work with. My sympathy goes to his family. God bless you all.

Mike and I both worked for the Sheriff's office in the mid 70's. I was his Lieutenant in the Jail. I later left and joined the Colorado State Patrol. Mike and I were both alumni of the Berlin Brigade. I was there five years after Mike had been there. I was a member of the 298th Army Band. We had much in common when it came to Berlin and it's history. He will be missed by all who new him. He was a leader and friend, and was the "brother" I never had. I will miss him very much. We got together many times just to visit and talk about things we had in common. God bless and keep you my friend. To Kay, you know my love for Mike. It will always be there. May he rest in peace and in our Saviors Arms.

Sorry to hear that Captain Metzger has passed. Condolences to Mike's family and friends on this loss, and I know that this was made a better world by Mike having been a part of it.
I owe Mike a great gratitude for his influence and encouragement, and for every success that I've had with my own career and life accomplishments. Mike could always find a way to bring out the best in you, even when you couldn't see it for yourself.
Truly one of the good guys, and it's been my pleasure to have known you.

Thanks Captain, for everything.
