Mike,

I miss the smiles and laughs we shared daily at McKesson. I still walk thru the warehouse thinking that you will appear in one of aisles to share your laugh or joke of the day. I will cherish the time that we had and keep you close to my heart.

Mike
I write in this book because I know that you know that you are missed and it is a way to express that feeling of loss. I write as if I am talking with you. It helps. We all here at Mckesson think about you and talk of you all the time. Mike you have touched so many people in so many different ways. Once again I would like to say (Thanks)! Mike we all miss you but we know that God has a different plan for you and we know that you will do it well.
OUT OF OUR SIGHT BUT ALWAYS ON OUR MIND!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike was a Big-Brother and a Great-Friend to me I met Mike 3 years ago when I started working for Mckesson. The very first day Mike started joking with me. He always said "I love to see people smile and If I didn't like you I would not say much to you." In 2006 I got hurt at work and Mike was the one to help me out. Mike seem to be around when he need to be. Funny, loving, caring, love to eat, love to make jokes, and love to help anyone that needed him. Mike enjoyed life. I thank God for allowing me to meet him and spend a little part of His life smiling. Mike I will miss you very much. Reclamations and Quailty Controll Departments are not the same anymore. I walk in looking for you everyday but It's cool because I know you have moved on up a littler higher just to be the angel that is watching over all of us. Mike thanks for all that you have taught me, thanks for teaching me life little things as my brother and friend, thanks for just being Mike.
Mike you are out of my sight but you will always be in my heart and the hearts of your co-workers and friends at Mckesson.
Thanks Mike!
To the Family
May God Bless you and Keep you in His care. Mike will be missed.

Patrick,

I'm glad we finally met you and I'm hear for you during your time of mourning. I've always thought about you because you are my family and I love to meet my family members. You have so much to learn about the family, this was a sad day for us, but it gave you the oppurtunity to meet your family. You have my number now, so please don't be a stranger. I look forward in spending some quality time with you and your family as well. Call me, I'm only a few miles away from you.

I Love You Cousin!
and
May Your Father Rest In Peace!

To the family...Mike (as he was affectionately known at the bowling center), was a well loved quiet, humble gentleman. His friendly smile will be missed. May the joy of our good times with him follow us through the years. My prayers are with you at this time. Peace and Blessings!

Mike,
We had big fun when we used to work together and even more fun bowling. You were truly a funny, down to earth person and you will be missed. It’s not good-bye friend, just see you later. God Bless

Patrick,

Words can't express your loss, and to loose a parent or any loved one is very hard. You have my sympathy.

Mike was the epitome of a thoughtful and helpful neighbor, and one we missed most when we moved away. Our prayers are with the family.

To My Family:

My heart and prayers are with you during your time of sorrow. Mikey was my cousin and I'm going to miss him so much. I saw Mikey about a month or so ago and I was shocked to have gotten word that he passed. Life is too short and situations such as this, we need to fill in those missing gaps in the family, be more sociable with one another, be in each others life to the fullest because you just never know what's going to happen when or where.
"I'm sure gonna miss my Big Cousin"

Love 4ever and Always!

To My Family:

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Mikey was my cousin and I loved him dearly. I just saw him not too long ago and I can't believe that he is gone. Life is too short, so get closer to your family because you never know when you will see them again.

Love 4ever and Always!

To: Donte and Chakia,
Always remember that God is still in charge, no matter how cloudy and dreary the days ahead maybe, he will hold you and direct your path. God loves you so much that he assigned a special angel to see you through. Mike was more than a brother-in-law, he was my side kick, he always took care of me and my Mom. He knew that where ever I was, Maggie was one step away. He loved your Mom like she was the only woman on this earth and for that I am etenally greatful for him being a part of the family. Keep your hands in God's hand and you will see your Dad again.
God Loves You and so do I
