4 years have passed since you were called to Heaven. Although I worked 14 years at Tilcon N.Bfd, our paths didn't cross. I saw you only in passing when your Locomotive passed me in the Quarry or at a crossing. Like every Engineer I'd ever seen in my lifetime you always smiled and waved. I'll never forget that. May Our Lord Jesus Christ rest your soul.

Terry and Tommy, Friday will be a year since Mike passed into the ultimate weekend and I hope you've both healed enough to accept that he's an Angel looking out over your families. I wish for you peace.

To Katie, Tucker, Terry, Tim I'm so sorry to hear of this. My heart is heavy, I guess we are getting older and some of us are being called home. The memories of our youth that we spent together in the fields and farm are forever a part of me. Some of the best days of my life were spent with all of you. Sorry for your loss.
Mike, may you rest in peace. Your memories will be in my thoughts. You always had a spirit of laughter and fun about you. You will be missed.
May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face, and the rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his Hand.

To Tim, Katie, and the Wall Family... It was a privilege to have known Mike throughout the years! Although I have been gone from Wallingford now for 16 years, my years there with Wallingford Elks were the most gratifying years and the friendships made were life lasting! Mike was one of those! I wish all of you peace as you mourn his passing, but, I also hope that he is now resting in peace (RIP)! God Bless all of you!!

There are no words to express our sympathy. Mike was one in a million. He had that crazy laugh and his great big smile.
Once upon a time he brought Jimmy and me up to the farm to get some manure for our garden beds. My husband was gagging as the manure dripped down our back window of our truck. Mike was crying, he was laughing so hard!
We lived next to a Catholic Church and the stink was horrible... the priest came over and remarked that he was trying to get people to church and we were driving them away with the smell. It is one of my favorite memories of Michael Wall!
Those twinkling blue eyes and that devilish grin and that crazy laugh! We will miss him, but glad he is at peace!
So sorry we cannot be there for all of you but please know we are grieving with you. May God bless you all and give you his peace!
