Teri,
Words can not explain how sorry I was to here of Michael's death. All I can think of is the crazy carefree times we had as teenagers and Michael's never ending smile. I've thought about you and your kids often through the years and wish we had never lost touch, hopefully we can catch up at some point. For now please know your entire family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Shari and Teri,
You were the first friends my sister and I made in Broken Arrow when we moved next door to you as kids. We were so shocked and sorry to hear about Michael. He was such a great, happy-go-lucky person. We will always remember him.

Even though I haven't seen Michael in a few years, he was one of the funnest people that I have ever met. He was my son's godfather, and I only wish that I had kept in better contact with him. I am very sorry that I missed the funeral, I only learned about this today. Dr. Dubin and Justin (and family), I don't think that I can completely express my sympathy for your loss. Michael was one of the nicest, funniest, caring people I have ever met, and I know that many people will be saddened by his loss.

For my dear friend Teri, I only met your brother a couple of times but I know he must have been a great person if he was anything like you. Always thinking of others, you are so cheerful and thoughtful and my heart is breaking for you.

Dubin (Michael) was an awesome man. He seemed to always have a smile on his face and would be the first to tell you what he thought about anything. He was always there for his friends and was willing to go the extra mile to help when needed. Everytime I spoke with him he bragged on his son, who brought him most of his happiness. He will be missed greatly.

I knew Michael personally before I began going to he and his Father for eyecare. He was a fun loving person with a good outlook who always tried to help people if he could. Moving into his own home was a dream come true for him. I was always struck by the love and respect he had for his Father and the absolute joy he had in being a Father himself. His smile and mischevious spirit will be missed. My prayers to the family.

I will always remember taking Michael and his date to his prom because his parents were out of town. He looked so handsome. His smile always lit up his whole face. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this most difficult time.

I have gone to the office that Michael worked at for years. He was always so helpful and fun to work with. He always had a smile and was patient helping me with my children. I told him one time how lucky he was to be able to work with his Dad, whom he loved so much. I told him that few people get that opportunity and that he was truly blessed. My heart goes out to his family. He will truly be missed by those whose lives he touched. May GOD be will his son, you had a wonderful father and he was so proud of you. Keep his memory close to you and know he is watching over you from Heaven.

I refused to believe that this was "our Michael" when we heard it on the news. The next day I had to call the office and was extremely saddened to find out that it was. My husband, Vic, and I have been going to Michael and Dr. Dubin for about 20 years. Michael always helped me pick out my frames for my glasses and gave me such great advice. It just never occurred to me that he might not be there. He was a wonderful guy and always made me laugh. We will miss him terribly.

Michael had a wonderfule smile! He had such an outgoing personality. He could talk with anybody about anything. He had such a zest for life. He also had such courage. He was never afraid of anything or anybody. Somtimes the Lord takes the brightest stars early. He was definitely a bright star who will be missed.

I've known Michael since he was just a little kid and it's just impossible to believe that he's really gone. Can't believe I'll never see that mischievious smile again... Rest in peace, Michael.
