Michael was my mentor, business partner, and colleague. Great man with a very big heart. Smart and always down to earth. Learned a lot from him. May his soul rest in perfect peace. 

My sincerest sympathies to Michael’s Family. I didn’t know him long, but already miss him at The YMCA. Peace, I pray for him. 

My condolences to Michael's family. I first met Michael at the YMCA when he asked me some questions about training and health. He eventually hired me to work with him 1 day a week for 30 minutes mostly to teach him new ways to help with his leg strength and balance.  He actually taught me things as well during our sessions and I will forever be grateful for all that I learned and my time spent with him. I'm deeply saddened to hear of his passing as he was such a spirited man with so much more life to live. Sending all the prayers and love to family during this sad time. I will hold on to all those words of wisdom he would share when I would see him. Thank you for allowing me to have spent time with him. I know I am a better person since meeting him.
