My heartfelt condolences to the family.
i was never close to mike, but i’ve met him a few times and he’s always been respectful to me & i’ve always seen him with a smile & knowing such a big hearted person is gone hurts all my prayers and condolences go to his family and friends .😢
“Hey, do you have a piece of paper I can have? I didn’t bring any today” was the first thing Michael ever asked me. We were sitting in Spanish class doing some comic assignment the teacher had us doing. He was showing me his stick figure drawings of him that was for his comic strip. Michael was the first friend I made in high school. No matter what, he was always watching out for me. I also remember my friends were about to get into a fight on the other side of the school and Michael took off his jacket literally threw it at me and said “ what, I’m going to help “ when I looked at him like he done lost his mind. To Michaels family I am very sorry for your loss. I couldn’t imagine what any of you are going threw. Always remember Michael is still here with you guys. He’s in your hearts. And in every memory. When you step out the house to walk or drive somewhere he will be there looking out for you to keep you safe. I promise god will take good care of him

My heart is so broken, wished we would have talked more when last visited. Michael was such a loving person, we always argue about him calling me grandma instead of memaw (a loving moment). I’ll miss you baby but never forget. Prayers and condolences to family.
