Mike was a history buff - he gave me a photograph of the highest quality he had taken, and I have always treasured it.
I am very fortunate in having many memories of him in " the good old days. "

I only speak for myself of course - my life was enriched by knowing this fine man and I know I am not alone in thinking this.

Bless you Mike and your family.

Fran and family, I am so sorry for your lost. I worked with Mike for just ten weeks at ONG several years back. (I don't think he liked me very much then.) We reconnected at "Bat Day" just over a year ago and I became involved in the ONG Halloween event. We rediscovered each other under better circumstances and were looking forward to another great Halloween at Newgate. I was unhappy to hear of his departure from Newgate and now, saddened to hear of his departure from your lives. I hope you are able to find comfort within your family and friends.

Please accept my condolences for the passing of Michael. There is hope though, as the Almighty has arranged for the resurrection in the future. He promises, "... There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." (Acts 24:15)

I hope you find these few words comforting and provide motivation to prepare for the new world of God's making. (John 17:3)
