Duff we just had our 60th reunion and you are always in my good memories of the past at McBride and KPMG. You are gone, but definitely not forgotten. You left great memories for a lot of people.

Duff, hard to believe it has been twelve years. We still talk about you from time to time when the guys get together. We are planning our 60th reunion, so if you have any ideas, somehow send them my way :) You might be gone, but definitely not forgotten.

Mike passed away ten years ago, but it seems as though in many ways he just stays with us. His name often comes up when we have a group of his McBride classmates get together. Mike we miss you, please keep an eye out for us until we meet again. Mike & Pat Hagenhoff

To the Duffy family,

Mike was perpetually upbeat during his time with me at CBIZ, no matter what life was throwing at him. He was incredibly creative, and amazingly optimistic. As the testimonials stated, Mike left people better off with his friendship. He will be so missed.

To the Duffy family,

There is a term that we learned at McBride - 'hail-fellow-well-met' -meaning someone who is always out to make new friends. This best describes my memories of Mike.

Patsy and kids;

Our deapest sympothy goes out to you all. I worked with Mike for 4 years back in the Vess days and we had so much fun and did some great work for that company. We kept in touch over the years and he and I just had lunch a couple of months ago. It was good to tell stories of the Vess days and to share where our lives had taken us. I regret that I just learned of his passing and missed the memorial. Mike touched a lot of us over the years and the memories of our time together will live on.

To the Duffy Family:
I send my deapest sympothies to each family member. I always looked up to Mike as a mentor. We did work for him off and on for years. He always had great insight and just his presence and his knowledge of handling business projects taught me alot about business and life. He was a very funny and witty person and he will be truly missed. God Bless you and the entire family.

Our sincere condolences to the Duffy family. It is hard to believe he is gone. Mike did a great job for Vess where I reported to him. He taught me a lot and was responsible for many good things while there. We will miss him.
Sincerely,

Something I would like to have said about me I say about him: Enjoyed his occupation and did it extremely well. He was a friend.

Duff was a person that was so full of life it is hard for us to process his passing and not having him with us anymore. Having known him for over 50 years he has brought nothing but fond memories of the time together. We have shared many laughs and good times over the years and these will not be forgotten. To the Duffy family we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
