Michael you were and will always be a true brother in arms...there is not a day I don't miss you bro, not a day I wouldn't give anything to have you back here with us. You were such an in inspiration to so many people, you have no idea how many lives you touched by you just being MC. You leaving us all of a sudden left alot of unanswered prayers and questions here with us. Only the good lord knows why he chose to take you when he did, and i know it ain't up to me to argue with him. I just know you had so much life left in you, not to mention you just met lisa who turned your whole world around 360 degrees for the better. I will never understand why you had to leave us behind so suddenly bro. I know you know this Paratrooper always had your back in everything. I miss the detective stevenson/park rangers era we somehow made it thru. Know that i miss u everyday ese, and love you bro. You will always be my best friend.

Shirley & Julie - We pray that the heartbreak you feel now will eventually be replaced by the many wonderful memories you have of Michael.  He was truly an extraordinary young man. A part of him will live on in the many people he touched with his sincerity, kindness, humor, and of course the billion candlepower smile.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Michael you were always so sweet and thoughtful from the time we were kids in high school until the last time I saw you. I'm glad I knew you. I will be missing you. Rest in Peace.

I met Michael in 2004 while serving overseas.  I got to see him for one week and we wrote letters back and forth while in theater (him in Iraq and I in Kuwait).  Some how we lost touch and by the grace of God, we reconnected seven years later; last month.  I loved him since the day I met him and when we spoke again recently, it was like a day hadn't passed since we last spoke.  He served his country, loved his family and friends, and made the best out of a bad situation.  We were all lucky to have Michael in our lives.  Our prayers go out to his family.  

I'll be seeing you Michael.  Thank you for loving me.

Michael was a great guy and had a huge heart. He will be greatly missed. Your family has created many memories, keep them close and remember his laughter, his hugs and his life. Until we see see you again my friend.

Rest in peace my friend. You have always been an inspiration to everyone you have every know. I will always remember and miss you, until the day we meet again.

MC!  you always ask me "how your mom and dem?" drinking a shot of tequila for you.

May the Lord bless your dear family during this time. You were always a sweet young man.

Bro, I'm gonna miss ya. had fun hanging out playing disc golf.  we talk some crazy stuff didn't we? he he.

Me and Mike (mc) served in iraq together in 2004. We shared a lots of memories together. Mc would always make you laugh no matter what. He would always tell me it could be worse. My condolence to the family.

I've loved you since Olene Street and am so glad that we kept in touch over the years.  All I have are fond memories that make me smile or laugh when I think of you.  Peace be with you Michael.  Liz Mimms

Although we didn't know Mike personally that well, he did visit us in our home several times and we always enjoyed is company.  We extend our sympathies to all his family and friends.

I did not know you, but you were my brother, serving in different branches, we are all family.  It always saddens me when we lose a servicemember.  You fought a good fight, and we are all proud. 

I salute you.

It was an absolute pleasure to know Mike.  He touched my heart just minutes after meeting him for the first time.  
May your memories comfort you, and may we all continue to practice the lessons he taught us on how to treat others.
I, and everyone who knew you, will miss you Mike - so very much.

Shirley, We are so sorry to hear about your loss of Michael.  You and your family are in our prayers.

Shirley,
We are so for your loss of Michael.  You and your family are in our prayers.
