    I was Michaels caretaker for a total of 2 years. My last memory with him was him and I riding in the van, after leaving the hospital. We listened and sang to music. We had a blast having lunch out parked at the lake side. He was a great man. He made me laugh constantly. He will never be forgotten nor missed. Linda, Thank you for everything. Miss you Michael rest in peace my friend.

    Michael was the kind of person who could instantly make you feel at home. I'm going to miss everything about him and every moment we shared. He made everyone around him a better person just by simply accepting them and always being there. He even taught me the real rules of monopoly which in my 30 years im in shock nobody did in the first place. You will be missed by many Michael. 2 years of unforgettable moments that I've had the privilege of knowing you for from christmas days spent with hot coacoa and lovely stories about your loved ones to Thanksgiving where I got the random smile and a statement of I love you sir . Love you bud you will always be missed.
