Name: Porter Loring Mortuary - McCullough
Address: San Antonio, TX

To the friends and family of Michael "MAR", please accept my belated condolences.
 I attended school with him from 7th grade at St. Mary's Downtown and at Central Catholic. 
Some of my fondest memories include seeing him play the guitar at Friday mass and special school events. 
The holiday buñuelos that his family would provide were always enjoyed by all! 
Michael was known as "The Whooper" because of his size and formidable basketball defense. 
He also had a remarkably accurate inside hook shot. 
We both took turns as Safety Patrols at the street crossing on St. Mary's Street. 
Michael and I would volunteer to sell afterschool snacks for the field trip fundraising. 
Our class will never forget the trip to Six Flags and the shenanigans that occurred.
 I can hear the boom box playing Boz Scaggs Lido Shuffle on the charter bus as we road to Dallas.
 Michael's departure from Central left a void in my school experience that I never got over!
 He was missed then and now. 
I had hoped to reconnect with him later in life and recount our younger years. 
For the brief time that I was friends with him, I will be ever grateful.
Respectfully in Christ
Oscar Trevino

'I work at Forte Rehabilitation and Wellness and had Michael as a patient many times. He was such a sweet Man and we will miss him very much. Condolences to his entire family and friends from the staff at Forte.'

'To Anthony, Carlos & Yolanda.....The Rios family and my family were neighbors as youngsters on W. Malone. I then played Basketball against Mike when he attended St Mary's Catholic School and then played with him at Central Catholic. I lost touch with Mike after he left Central but then reconnected with him at Kelly AFB. I worked as a civilian and would see Mike at the 149th when I worked Mobility Exercises, we kept in touch for a while but then lost touch, I had heard about his initial battle with cancer. I never got a chance to physically meet his wife and children but saw pictures of them, his passing is just sad and way too soon, but my parents Joe and Olga and myself express our deepest sympathy to the entire family Mike will be missed but will never be forgotten....RIP Mike.....Ernie Garcia CCHS'81....'

'I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Michael Rios and wish God's love to all of his family for healing, strength and peace during this difficult time. I knew of Michael through my friend and high school classmate, Yolanda (Rios) Peters, his sister. He was loved by many and will be missed by all. I pray God gives the whole family comfort, strength and peace of heart during this difficult time. I am very sorry, Yolanda about your brother's passing; though I did not know him well, I can tell from the many posts, that he touched so many others in his lifetime. He is now your angel watching over you. Take one day at a time and may God bless you all.'
