Hey Cuz,
I feel as though there was so much left unsaid. There was so much of life that we shared both good and bad. The memories of us will never fade and this pain will never heal. You were more than a cousin, you were a friend and nearly a brother. I don't know what to do without you and Denaya. I miss you Mike. I love you and think of you daily.

Hey Mike, Its ST. PATRICKS DAY and we ended up canceling the party this year because I ended up with the flu. I had a surprise ready for all who knew you, I was going to break out and pass around the bottle of CROWN ROYAL that you drank from and left here last year. I will save it for another speacial occasion and we will drink with you again. I love you and Denaya and I miss you both! LOVE UNCLE PAT

Dearest Mike (Buzz),
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I still shed tears for you daily.I know that's not what you would have wanted,I can hear voice in the back of my head telling me to stop crying, I'm sorry I can't.I just can't get past the pain.You meant so much to my family.We miss you so much.Sometimes I think it's not real it's just a bad dream and I will wake up soon,but reality sets in.So for now my friend until we meet again I will hold the memories close to my heart.Rest in peace my friend.

Michael...My memories of you are of this this cutie pie sporting only underwear playing in a kiddie swimming pool with my two daughters and some of the neighborhood kids. Your mom would bring you over to play while she and I drank coffee and chatted up the family gossip. Like with your sister, I didn't get the chance to know you in your teen and young adult life due to the 2,500 miles between us. I have been living across the country for the past 14 years. I love your mom and I know that all three of you kids have been her life. You were truly loved and will be missed. God bless you sweet child...Your cousin, Cindy Lou

On this 25th day of January I became a mom to a beautiful boy.
Now on this same day I still celebrate but only to the many memories of past. A candle for you today has been lit in your memory, and flowers to represent a sweet smell.
May your smile shine over all your loved ones, your arms protect those close at heart.
With everlasting love;

Mike;
You are my sunshine. My reason for living, for dying,laughing & crying.I miss hearing your voice, your hugs, yes even those dang jokes that(made me crazy) you pulled on me all the time. I know that you are in much safer place and are still watching over all of your family and friends that you held so dear to your heart. There are so many of us who miss you that NO words can begin to express. My heart has been broken that time could never heal but I will stand high & proud in your HONOR.

I miss you so much. Everyday I try to deal with what has happened. Your parents and little brother are what helps me keep on. We have known eachother for 10 years and have had so many good times. You touched my life in many ways and I will never forget you. From high school to adulthood we shared a friendship that nobody can take. I love you Mike and everybody misses you. Until we meet again.
Myron,Tabby,Alicia,Edward,David,and the Homies send their love.

Mike I remember when I would take you and Raylene to school. Then one day you needed a piece of paper so you ripped a page out of my dad's Thomas Guide map book. Then my dad went to look up a street and it just so happen to be on the page you ripped out. Also when Raylene, Adam and you would just kick it out in front of our house. I miss you very much and you will never be forgotten. Here is a poem for you.
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane.
I would walk right up to heaven,
To bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say good-bye.
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness,
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know

My big brother meant so much to me and his two nieces. He could always make me smile just by the crazy things that he would say. I love him so very much. He will be in our hearts forever. I remember when we were little riding our bikes at grandma and grandpas house. And going camping with Dad.I will always cherish these memories. Sleep with Angels Brother.I love you forever.

Mike and I use to hang out a lot in high school. As we got older, we seen less of each other. I seen him last when he moved back to Riverside. He congratulated me on my new baby, and that seems like only yesterday. Mike will be deeply missed and my deepest sympathy goes out to his family. May you rest in peace Buzz!

Mike was a quiet sort, at least in the office, but he will be missed, not only for the special things he did so willingly for us, but just his presence. Rest peacefully Buzz.

I had only just begun to start knowing Mike a few weeks ago. He worked with us at Pacific Southwest Concrete. What I remember of Mike from our few brief moments together was that he had a very positive-thinking mindset and a can-do attitude. He was respectful and friendly and I had hoped to get to know him better.

I am sorry that I did not get the chance to meet Mike in person, though I feel I have known him through his mother and the photos in her office. Rest peacefully Buzz in the love and care of the Lord.
