John and Kathleen, I am so sorry to hear about Mike. I only found out today. Though I hadn’t seen him in years, I remember the many times we hung out together when we were kids. I am sure he had a good heart and was well liked by all. Again, my sincerest condolences to your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Mike was an outstanding Marine, talented writer and one of the most genuine and caring people I have ever met. He was a true friend. I am proud to have known him. We only just recently got back in contact after many years. I am thankful I was able to speak with him recently but very sad I didn’t get a chance to see him again. May you rest in peace Michael, my dear friend. Semper Fidelis my Marine brother.
Mike always brought a smile to my face when he was around and had such kind words. He had a gentle heart and a compassionate soul. I just, today, found out the news… his smile and joy will be missed by many. Deepest Sympathy, Katie
