Mike, 
It hardly seems like a year since you passed from this life to your heavenly one.  Vic and I often remember the enjoyable times we all had together and miss your being there.  Rest in Peace.

Mike, yesterday I was sitting on our back deck and their was a bird singing like I have never heard a bird do before.  This was the day that you celebrated your one year anniversary with Jesus.  Mike, I think of you all the time and miss you very much.

     One year! It seems like so long ago, but also like yesterday. I miss him so much my heart aches. But one day at a time they say. I'm trying to be strong. Thank you God for my kids, grand-kids, family, and friends. Blessed to have them.
     Are you watching over me/us? I believe so! Rest Peacefully my love. We will be reunited again.
Forever and Always, Love, Deb

It has been a year and my heart is still lost without you! I miss you so bad my brother. May God hold you and Tom in the palm of his hands. Love you dearly, Mary

Mike, I had your picture looking right at the tv during the playoffs and super bowl and you came through for the Ravens.
Miss you Mike and will always love you.

Vic

I was thinking about Mike throughout the playoffs and rooted them on in his name!

I knew those "Ravens" would get it right for him this year! Mike had to have some Angels in the end zone for this year's Super Bowl. 
Mike I miss you so much. I'm trying to be strong. Please keep an eye on us all till we meet you again.
Forever and Always, Love, Deb

I would like to extend my sincerest, heart-felt sympathies to the entire Hipchen family.  Mike was truly one of the most honest, kind, generous people I've ever had the priviledge to know and work with.  We had great times sharing stories of the kids escapades and interests. I can't ever look at a Thistle without thinking of Mike and Debbie ..... Evergreen.  Rest in peace, Mike, it was an honor to have known you.  Lauren

I knew Mr.Hipchen through his daughter Liz, we were very good friends. I spent a lot of time at their home and every kind word that everyone has wrote is true times a million. He was one of the most kind and most decent human beings I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He could always make me laugh no matter how bad of a mood I was in. I want to tell his family not to worry, if anyone deserves a spot in Heaven it is him. God bless you through these hard times and always.

Mike will always be remembered as one of the true gentlemen and great guys by all of us who have had the pleasure and privilege of working with him. May God grant His peace to the whole family at this sad time.

I am a supervisor in the Johns Hopkins radiology department. I have been associated with Mike for over 20 years. During this time, Mike has shown himself to be a genuinely nice guy, a man of integrity and a man with a work ethic of extremely high standards. Mike's pleasant demenaor helped immensely in some very stressful situations. He always had a smile and a kind word. I will miss him dearly. He was a collegue and a friend. George Keffer

I worked with Mike for many years.  It was always a pleasure talking to him or seeing him.  He will be missed greatly by anyone who ever had the chance to know him.  My  condolences to his family.

I have known Mike for 10 years and over the time in our business relationship we have become friends. He had so many good qualities I could hardly do him justice writing about them.  I honored and respected him for the man he was. He was kind, giving a true gentleman who loved his wife and family.  I will miss him dearly. During my time in ICU he gave so much comfort to my wile. Goodbye my friend.

I was fortunate to get to know Mike in the last few years.  He was one of the most open, sincere and honestly friendly people I have ever known.  Mike always went out of his way to ask how others were, even when things were tough for him.  Mike set an example of friendship I hope I can live up to.

Mike was one of the finest and kind human beings I've ever met! I feel truly honored to have worked with him and have know him as dear friend.
Mike, we all love you and miss you! We also know that you are with God now and we all will meet again.

Pam, I didn't know your dad but all the wonderful things you said let me know he was truly a blessed man in gods eyes,  I know this loss is most difficult ,but as we all must know loss in our lives,  just know your dad is prepairing a place for all he loved in this life.

Is when never forget them and rember all they have done in your life and how their life impacted outhers they came in contact with during their life..know gods love is forever just as yours is for your father.. God bless you all

Mike was one of the dearest people on earth and how fortuanate were we all to know him. Some of my best memories were when he stayed out in the country with us and tried to get Dad(Uncle Lou) to listen to Hendrix, running through the fields and woods from the bees and and the bull, and just hanging out very late in the evening talking as the metal rocking chairs rocked against the concrete. See you on the other side some day. God's peace. Nanc

OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILY. WE ALWAYS LOVED SEEING MIKE. I REMEMBER WHEN HIS CHILDREN WERE LITTLE ,DEBBIE WOULD BRING THEM IN WOOLWORTHS IN HIGHLANDTOWN. THEY WERE A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE,ALWAYS.
                                                                      CATHY (MARTIN)- MAJEWSKI

Mike was the most giving and caring friend I have ever known. He will be sorely missed. I know he is at peace now and will be watching over all of us.

Jankovich Family

Mike Hipchen was truly THE BEST.  He was kind, caring and trustworthy to customers and co-workers alike.  He loved his family unconditionally and may God continue to bless them.
Mike, you will be missed, but, more importantly, never forgotten!

Dear Mary and Family,
We are very sorry for your loss. We know how much you loved him. We did not know Mike well but we were lucky to have met him at your home on those family occasions.  
With our deepest condolences,
Karen, Bruce, Kevin and Brian Marshall

It's hard to believe you are gone. I will miss you very much. I hope you know that you were my favorite. I was so proud for Cody to have you as his godfather.

Although I didn't know Mike long while he was working with Johns Hopkins, I found him to be a man with a great sense of humor, pride in his work, so much devotion to his family and faith, and unpresidented integrity. My thoughts and prayers to Mike's family and dear friends during this difficult time.

Looking thru the pictures, how blessed he was and all of you to have such a wonderful family, such a wonderful life. We are so sorry and sadden by your tremdous loss. Love you all

I was very honored to know and work with Mike. I will always think and remember him. My deepest sympathy to all of his family. We will miss him terribly.

I will miss you greatly, Uncle Mike.  I'm proud to have known such a kind and loving person who could spread joy with a smile.

I came to know Mike through his work at Hopkins. Mike was one of the best service manager that I have met in the past few years. Even though he worked for the imaging company, yet he was always concerned about patient safety and eager to go the extra mile to make sure his staff and his company provided the best for Hopkins. He was very a nice gentleman and will be thoroughly missed. I wish all the strength to his family during this hard times - Dr M.Mahesh (Perry Hall, MD)

You will forever be in my heart my dear brother. Love Rose

Mike was one of the nicest, most honest, men I ever had the pleasure to work with.  He will be missed personally as well as he has been professionally.  Don Ames (Garner, NC)

My sympathy to the family.  I knew Mike years ago when he was my manager in the Philladelphia area.  He was always honest, fair and I appreciated him as my manager. May God's love and peace be with all the family.

I worked with Mike about 5 years ago and he was a great guy. I enjoyed the the times I spent with him. My heartfelt condolances to the Hipchen family.

Mike was my supervisor at siemens...he was a terrific supervisor and friend.from talking with mike i could tell he loved his wife and family very much.....he was always willing to help physically if i needed help doing a job...whatever problem or concern i had mike would always help resolve it quickly..i was very sad when he moved and wasn't my supervisor anymore....GOD BLESS Mike and his family...

Although I only got to meet Mike a few times I talked with him on the phone a lot back in the days when we had distric offices. Our talk always somehow turned to football and his love for the Ravens. Mike always, always had a positive attitude and I was always happy after we had talked. There aren't a lot of people like that in the world. My condolences to his loving family. I'll continue to think of him often.

Mike Schiltz

I worked with Mike several years when I worked at Siemens in Baltimore.  Was always a great guy to deal and work with.  RIP Mike.  I enjoyed my time working with you.

A piece of me is missing now. I feel  numb, lost, and there is a big hole in my heart. I do find comfort knowing that Mike is whole again, at peace, and in the arms of Jesus. He was a devoted husband, father, and friend. We visited an earthly paradise last March when we fulfilled our dream and went to Hawaii. Hopefully the promise of being with him again someday in an eternal heavenly paradise will help ease the pain I feel now. I love you Mike, Forever &  Always, Debbie

My deepest sympathy to my brother in law, Jerry Hipchen, and the entire Hipchen family.

Debbie, Pam, Beth, and Mike.....We are deeply sorry for the loss of your husband and father.  He was always a nice, easygoing fella, easy to talk with and always happy and smiling whenever we saw him.  We're sure you will miss his presence and love.  Hopefully, as time passes on, the good memories will surpass and take over these sad ones and you'll be smiling again remembering Mike.  Donna & Ken B.

In my life I have been blessed in so many ways. I consider knowing Mike as one of those blessings. He was one of the nicest people I have had the honor to know. We had some good times together and I will miss him.

My prayers go out to the Hipchen family. Mike was a true gentleman, wonderful colleague, a loving father, and most of all a friend.  I am grateful for my times with Mike.  Raven football will not be the same without our Monday morning QB sessons of sunday's game.  Mike, you will be missed.  RIP my friend.  God Bless

To my mentor (or as he liked to say, tormentor!), I will miss you dearly.  Mike was more than a colleague, he was a true friend.  He looked out for me often while I was learning to be a site manager.  He spent a great deal of time on-site in New Hampshire with me in the beginning and called often afterwards.  I can't walk into Petey's in Rye without thinking of him.  Mike liked the chowder and the fried clams.  I will always remember Mike as one of the most positive influences in my life and I am certainly a better man for having known him.

Dear Micheal,

We always enjoyed your wonderful spirit of kindness and caring towards others.  Your thoughtful nature helped my to appreciate others as you have.  Rest in piece my friend.  You are in the Lord's hands now.

Paul

My heart and prayers go out to Deborah  and the entire Hipchen family. His Siemens family will miss him greatly as well. Mike was one of a kind and a beautiful soul. I am blessed to have known him.

Mike was a wonderful guy and a true gentleman. I had a lot of respect for Mike and always enjoyed working with him or just chatting and catching up.

When I was first hired by Siemens, Mike was a Field Service Engineer and then progressed to a ASM back in the days when service dispatch was handled by the local District.  Mike was among a handful of my associates that did not have a bad bone in his body.  Mike was one of the most pleasant colleagues and hard working.  At our annual Christmas parties, I always had the chance to meet his wife Debbie and hear the stories of their children, very young at the time but alwasy on their minds as they talked about them.

Mike will always be remembered by his company colleagues!

Bob Plaut

Michael was one of the best co-workers I have ever had the pleasure to work with.  Many years ago Michael gave me a Catholic card with a picture of Mary, Mother of Jesus on one side and the “Hail Mary” prayer on the back.  I have kept it all these years.  I will continue to cherish it and think of him when I hold it in my hands.

I worked with Mike for years and honestly he was probably the nicest person I've ever known. He had a very gentle nature and worked very hard at keeping everyone happy.

My prays go out to Mike and family.  He was truly a wonderful person.

"Mike was the contract administrator with Siemens and my Hosptial for almost 10 years. Mike was the guy I knew I could count on in any situation, as he gave every issue his personal attention. He will be greatly missed. My prays are with his family."

Mike and I traveled the same paths in the early years and spent many days and nights talking about families and futures. Mike always had a twinkle in his eye when he spoke of his love for his family. Although our careers went in different directions our friendship was always there. The world has lost a great man, but God has gained another angel. I am blessed to have known Mike and my prayers go out to his family and friends.

I met Mike through my husband, Vic.  They were cousins, but more like brothers. It was always great to see Mike, Debbie, their children and grandchildren at family parties.  Together, they lit up a room.  I know the Lord's got you in the palm of His hand, Mike. Rest in Peace. Love, Pat Pohorence

Mike was not only my cousin but also he was like a brother to me.  I would play football with Mike in our younger days and he would catch my passes like he was Raymond Berry from the Colts.  He also never forgot me when he had a ticket to a ball game.  Mike I miss those times but they will always be in my memory.  I will especially miss you and your phone calls when the Ravens score a touchdown.  Love you, Vic

Mike was always one of the "good guys". I was fortunate to have spent some time with him. I will always remember his warm and good nature.
My familys prayers go out to Mike and his family

I worked with Mike for many years at Siemens and a great man.  What a loss!  My sympathy to his family friends and Michael, RIP...we'll all see you on the other side.  Siemens has lost a great person.
