Hey it's Autumn(Michael daughter) when I heard he died,my heart fall into two and I cried a lot of tears 😭.  He made me laugh and smile. My heart light up when I saw him every Christmas then I stopped seeing him and I wished he didn't die and I wish I could see him again! My heart hurts. My life as been sad ever since he died and I smiled less and my heart just kept hurting. I always loved him even if he was near or far! If I had one thing to say to him, I would say this " Dad, I love you and I don't want you to die and I will always love you."❤️😭

Michael has an unforgettable spirit. I never seen him angry or bringing bad energy. With Michael's infectious laugh, he would always get you to smile and laugh even if you didn't want to. Mike is the kind of person the world needs more of. When I find myself being negative, hopefully I can be more like Mike.

My condolences to Michael's family. I first met Michael when I transferred schools from Northwestern to Southwestern in 10th grade , he became my first bestfriend at southwestern . Michael always had a warming smile and kept me laughing throughout school. Having a bad day wasn’t an option Michael could always turn it around. When I moved to Texas Michael always stayed in contact we would always catch up and tell each other funny stories as well as reminiscing about school days lol. Michael was one of the most smartest, caring, and the most genuine human beings I’ve met in my life I couldn’t have ask for a better bestfriend than him. He would always call and ask about how me and my kiddos were doing since they were babies, when I say Michael was indeed a consistent friend he was he never missed a beat. I’m going to miss my bestfriend so much not being able to hear “Hey what’s up Iesha” hurts so bad, but I know you’re watching over your family and Friends Mike love you forever bestfriend til we meet again. 💙🕊️

A beautiful smile and such a gentle soul♥️🙏🏾 RIH and know you are loved and missed dearly

Cousin you got your wings

May rest easy And I’ll see you on the Other Side 

I’m gone miss that big Ol smile & laugh😢

♥️😇
