So sad to learn of your passing. Wish I knew at the time to offer condolence to your mom and family. I pray your wife and daughter have gone to thrive the way you would have wanted them to. You and your family were very important to me at that the time God intended. Best wishes dear friend

Well old friend, its been many years. I always considered you the best friend i ever had. When i think of my life, i always think of those days riding in the Montego with Robert. Three misfits that somehow found each other. We all drifted apart after high school. I often thought of you. I always thought there would be a day when we could reconnect.  I guess i waited a little too long. My condolences to your mom, who always made me feel at home in her house when i didnt have much of one to go home to. To your dad, the gentleman who's dress shoes often disappeared when you or i came up short for a pair during choir performances. To your sister and brother, and the rest of your wonderful family, my heartfelt condolences. You were a father, a husband, and it seems you never stopped chasing your dream of performing.  You did well my friend.  You did well. Rest now and maybe one day we see each other again.  Roy     

 It has taken me until now to be able to find the words to describe Mike and I still can't quite do it.
 I've had the privilege to work with him as a director, as well as an actor...and, most importantly,called him a friend.
I had to hold back tears while George and I sang at the service and they finally spilled free after the last note was sung.
 He was a dear friend and a magnificent person.
 I can only hope he knows just how much he was loved by so many people.
 To his family, THANK YOU for sharing him with us.
We'll miss you Mike!

Byron and Marianne, thank you for the gift of such a wonderful person.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

Michael, you were an amazing, caring, generous, smart, funny man.  Thank you for being my friend. What is remembered, lives.  And I will remember you, always...

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. May God give you the comfort and peace that you seek and may the soul of your loved one rest in peace.

We created magic together, we performed together, we laughed, cried, and sang together.  We argued, we disagreed, we ate great food, we saw great theater, we enjoyed so much of the same music. We all created magic in Puddleton on Piddle and you were a HUGE part of that. You will be missed. My condolences and love to your entire family Mike. "I hope we'll meet in Canaan's land...." LOVE YOU BROTHER!

My condolences to the family. You were a valued member of our AMC family and will be greatly missed. May you find peace in the life thereafter.

And, just like that, the world is a little less bright. You left an indelible mark on anyone who met you, Michael. Our hearts will be forever changed by having been in the presence of your amazingly quick wit, resounding voice, generous spirit and gentle soul. You will be missed by many, many people but never, EVER, forgotten. May angels sing thee to thy rest and HERALD your way home. Godspeed <3

My condolences to the family. May Michael forever rest in peace and joy, for he had an amazing soul that was welcomed everywhere and touched everyone. Godspeed Michael.

  I felt like the luckiest guy here. ( AMC Mortgage) Michael seen me struggling trying to set up computer.  He came and gave me a few pointers on how to do it.  I appreciated that and thanked him. Peace to you and your family.

The world is a lot colder place without you in it Michael. It was a pleasure working with you, and I will miss our conversations greatly. I wish I could see you one last time to let you know how much you were appreciated. You left us too soon. Rest In Peace my brother.

My deepest sympathy to all of the family members.  Mike will be missed at American Mortgage Consultants.

I don't have words to express the loss of such a talented, funny, and amazing person.  I am honored to have spent time with him both onstage and off.  A true spirit of friendship and giving.

With heartfelt condolences for an amazing and vibrant soul gone too soon from this world but never from our hearts. May the love of those around you help you through the days ahead.

By Heaven's gate a new herald waits,
To welcome us each home
Across the clouds his voice it rolls 
To call back those who roam 

A warm embrace,
An encouraging word,
He taught us all, every one
That our dreams were not absurd.

He brought us all such joy
His voice could banish all our gloom
His boisterous laugh
Could warm the coldest room

His eyes they fill the sky with stars
His smile lights the moon
His gentle spirit fills our hearts
Our dear friend taken far too soon

Godspeed Michael, someone as special as you will never be forgotten. May all your friends and family find peace and comfort with cherished memories of you. With love, friendship. God Bless.

Mike, we enjoyed getting to know you at BARF. You were such a nice person who truly enjoyed life and what you were doing. We were lucky to be your friends. You will be missed by so very many people, and we will never forget you.

Best of my love my friend. You were a light in this world and a warm and kind soul. The days ahead will be a bit colder and darker now, but you'll live on in all our hearts and memories. Rest well brother

With our condolences. We will remember you always and forever my friend. Godspeed.

You are Loved by many. Gone too Soon.  Godspeed on your journey.  You
will be missed.  ❤
