The day Mike was born I became an uncle for the first time. I was so proud to have that title.

Mike was a sweet kind young man that had an incredible outlook on life. Always polite and ready to give a big hug to anyone that came within his reach. I was fortunate to be the receiver of many.
His smile will always be with me and the memories he leaves will keep the warmth of his joy with us forever.

Mike and myself,had a ton of fun allways,I can remember pulling him on a skateboard to fair ave.in a V.W.bus and yelling to him there`s a stop sign ahead,well I stopped but Mike kept on going across the street through somebodys fence,he was ok,but he said it scared the heck out of him.I think heck is putting it light.but we drove off and didn`t worry about the fence that was knocked over.I didn`t see Mike much later in his life,but I recall he was allways full of life and action,love &will miss the man,my brother Mike.

Mike used to tell me all of the time that You can pick your friends but not your family.... If GOD felt that your family where the people he wanted you to
have in you life. Then respect that wish even if you don't understand why they are you family, they should be patient with you and you to them. Sometimes I would get full of myself and he always like to knock me down a notch to remind me where I was from. I miss his wisdom and unconditional love. I miss my brother, my father and my friend.

Dearest Rainey, Nikki, Daniel, Grandma Coleen and everyone else who loved Mike.

It deeply pains me that Mike is no longer here. It is very hard to comprehend that I will not see him again. We have to look forward to the future! But never forget the time we all spent with Mike. He was a great person and we were so lucky to have someone like him in our lives! I can still hear his laugh! He was truly a free soul! We can all take a lesson on how to enjoy the time we have from Mike. I recently found out the Sky View drive in movie is closing. As all of you know, Mike liked movies. We all had so much fun there with Mike. It makes me very sad to think of those great memories disappearing with nothing physical to hold on to. I wish I could buy it for us all! I knew a few different Mike's. A very fun, crazy and destructive Mike. You know, the one who would say don't tell your mom about this one! He would scare the crap out of you and would be laughing the whole time! Then we have the other Mike. The loving Mike that cared deeply about his children, wife and other family members! He truly loved being a father. I think it really brought out the kid in him! I am honored that he was my uncle. I truly miss him! I love you all....

I will always remember Michael for his smiling face and love of family. He seemed to have such a tender place for children most of all. I will miss his hugs, words of wisdom, wit, and genuine caring. I'm grateful for having known Michael and look forward to seeing him again in Heaven one day.

My DEAREST, Mike I can't make this out to a single person because u were many people to me, not just my brother, uncle, friend or even father because everything you've given me in this lifetime can't be in just one of those category's. It was extrememly hard for me when I was informed of the loss because i had just lost my everything! You were always the stength in our family and losing u made me feel weak, I just want u to know that my love for u will never fall as weak as i sometimes feel without u! I'm only glad that ur in gods house and not in anymore pain or suffering! I just hope u forgive me for not being there when i should have! love always your, niece, daughter, friend and sister colleen

To the whole family,
I can honestly say that any one who met Mike in his life was touched by him in some way, I know I was for the short nine years that I knew him. My children were so incredibly lucky to have such a wonderful, and loving man in their life, I only wish that it could have been longer. Bryan and Brett also felt like Mike was not just a brother but a father to them and he treated every child in his life the same way. His wisdom and love will be missed so increadibly much but he will always be with each and everyone of us that knew him. Thank you Mike for being you and Thank you lord for the time we had on earth with him.

Dear Colleen,

You have always been like an Auntie to me. I love and will always charish memories of all us kids playing together at Santa Cruz Beach. Michael was so fun and I looked forward to being with him because he seemed even at that time to be special. It was a sweetness that even I at a very young age could feel. I am thankful I had the chance to be a part of his life. I do miss him. The last time I saw him was before he got sick. It was at Rochelle's. almost 10 years ago.I remember that smile of his as he sat on the coach watching all the kids playing. He had such a quietness in him. I pray in my heart for your whole family because I don't know what words to say. I love you Colleen and Ariel still has the quilt you made for her and gave to me at my baby shower. You were always there for me when I needed a friend. Michael blessed to have such a warm and loving Mother while he was in this world. God Bless You and Yours,

Michael was born within days of my first born. Colleen and I were pregnant at the same time and delivered very close together. I remember Michael as being very sweet and loving, kind and gentle like Gentle Ben. I am so sorry that he had to leave a young family and a wonderful wife and daughter but so happy that he was a born again Christian and is in a much better place and rejoicing with the Lord and that we who believe the same way will see him again. Love, Aunt Jerre

Rainy and Nikki, we are so deeply sad about Mike's passing and can only imagine the loss you both feel. Take comfort in knowing how much you are loved and we will be here for you day or night.Nikki,your Daddy was so proud of you it could be heard in his voice when he talked about you and your Mom. We are so happy we had the chance to know him better the last 5 years. Now that we've met our "extended family" (Rochelle, Mark & family) I know the relationships will grow, which I'm sure Mike would have loved. We love you both. Love, Traci, (Aunt Traci) (Uncle Matt)Matthew and Olivia (Cousin Olivia) Orlousky

Rainy and Christine,
Words can't begin to tell you how very sad I am for your loss. Although I didn't get the chance to grow up with Mike, I am so thankful to have been given the opportunity to meet the man that I proudly call my brother. I will always cherish the laughs and the time we did get to spend together during our adult lives. You are in my thoughts and prayers today and always. Lots of love to you.

Little Colleen,
I am sorry for the hurt that Michael's loss brings to your life. God is waiting to comfort you through this hurt; run to HIM.
Honor Michael's life by living up to the potential he always saw in you. You are a strong person and I know you can accomplish what you set your mind to. Set it on the Lord Jesus Christ and allow Him to guide you each step of the way home. Memories of Michael's response to adversities can show you a positive role model.
Praying for you always,
love you, janet

Rochelle,
'I am so sorry for your loss' are such inadequate words for the depth of my feelings at this time. I am truly sorry Michael is gone from our sight. I know you know that he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that is reason for celebrating; but our oh-so-human hearts still suffer. His loss leaves a 'Michael' hole in our lives, never to be filled again with a presence, only with a spirit of memories. Those memories can leave a small sweet smile on our face as we fondly travel the 'Michael' road of history. He will always be interwoven into the fabric of our lives, never forgotten, warts and all; brought to mind with "remember when Michael......".
My prayer for you is comfort from the loving arms of our Heavenly Father and serenity in your thoughts of your brother.
In Christ's Perfect Peace,
love, janet

Nikki,
Sunday, January 7, 2007, a day you will always remember. A sad and painful day for you, but for your Dad a blessed day; No more pain, and he got to see his Savior Jesus Christ face to face.
If your Dad would have had a choice I know he would have chosen to stay on earth with you even with his pain; but Nikki, in God's perfect plan everyone's days were set forth before time began. Your Dad had finished his tasks that God had asked of him and it was time for a homecoming with his Heavenly Father.
I remember when you were a baby how proud your Dad was and how protective of you. I was blessed to be considered special enough to be among the select few people who could take care of you when your parents went out. You were a joy to care for.
Your Dad's love will be with you forever. It's Ok to smile, laugh and remember the good times with him. He's in your heart forever.
As you take care of your "Stairway to Heaven" remember your Dad's love will flow down as your prayers rise up while he's waiting at the top of the 'stairway to heaven'.
I will miss your Dad also.
love, janet

Rainy,
You know how sorry I am that Michael has left this earthly realm. His passing causes those left behind to find a new 'normal life' without him. Sadness and hurt will now be part of 'normal' for all his family.

Take comfort knowing that Michael is in the presence of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You do not have to witness his pain anymore while not being able to do anything about it. Michael is now at PEACE.
I pray that as you watch "Peace" grow and bloom on the vine that you will take comfort from God and allow peace to seep into your own heart.
I will always be thankful for Michael's friendship.
Stay in touch,
love, janet

Coleen,
As a mother, my heart breaks for you in the loss of your son. As a Christian, I rejoice with you knowing that Michael is home with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; free of pain.
Memories of Michael are good ones. I remember his willingness to "take care of them for me" during my difficulties even while his own trials were so much bigger than mine. Michael had a sweetness and joy about him that couldn't help but rub off on me when I was around him.
He wasn't always an "angel" but I hope that "Angel Face" will bring you some comfort in the future as you watch it grow, and remember 'your little boy'.
I'm always only a phone call away.
love you always,
janet
