Michael meant a lot to my family and I. He was an amazing person with a loving personality. He Was a giver, with a great attitude and would get up and dance to any good song. I’ll never forget his amazing cooking and his infectious smile. Sending lots of love and prayers to Melissa, Matt and the family. He will forever be missed but never forgotten. RIP Michael

I have worked for Michael and his son Matthew at Bio Bob's for the last 8 years. Mike is one of the most kind hearted people I have ever met with a great sense of humour and love of music and singing along to the radio. I am saddened for his loss and saddened for Matt. May you rest in peace now Mike. My condolences to his family.

Dear Mike, When I think of you I see your smile and your huge heart. The sparkle in your eyes when you talked about Matthew, Melissa and Liz. I have met many people in my life, and you truly are one of the special ones. You are kind, a good listener, smart, and generous to a fault. I’m happy for all the stories we shared together and the trust that we shared. Your life here on earth was filled with lots of excitement. You owned successful businesses, travelled, shared your love with many, had the joy of being a husband,father, step- father, grandfather, boss, and most of all a friend to many. My heart breaks for you and all the people left behind that won’t have the pleasure of getting to know the real Mike. Your presence here is missed. Time to work your magic and look over everyone from above. Spread your wings and fly my friend. Love you so much. Lori

Dear Kim, Sherry, and Paul. Words can not express our sorrow with the loss of Mike. I am in shock. Did not know that he was not well. My memories of Micheal as a child are very close to my heart. Unfortunately we had loss contact in the last few years. I'm sorry for that. My sympathy to all of Micheal's family and extended family. I am so sorry that I can not make it on Saturday, Rolf and I are out of town, but I will be thinking of all of you. My deepest love to all of you Aunt Linda and Rolf. Kim and Sherry, can you send me your E-Mail address. This sadness encourages me to keep in better contact

Michael was a great man. I had the honor of sharing many experiences with him during my short time in Ontario. He will always be remembered as someone to look up to.
