Allen,

you instantly regretted telling me your middle name after because that’s what you heard me yell every 5 minutes! and you’d run away from me… but i’d always find you and you would be laughing at me! Can’t even describe how hard this has hit & I can’t even put in words how great of a person you were. So many great conversations.. so many great memories. There was never a dull moment with you and I will forever miss you. I will be waiting for those 6 am Saturday classes! <3 

 Mike .. you will be missed dearly, love you so much. Joc <3

Dearest Connie and Family, I mourn for and with you as you recover from the untimely loss of your beloved family member. Connie, I remember and hear memories of you talking about your dear brother and am sad to not have had the chance to know him. Prayers and blessings—you are all in my heart and thoughts.

Uncle Mike, "Glass badass", man.... you really got me with this one.... To know him was to love him, he was straight to the point and passionate about his work. Uncle Mike was aways ready to help with a project regardless of who you were or what needed to get done he found a way; he was a great man. I will certainly miss you. There is a void at the Circle Glass that cannot be filled without your presence. I'll miss our chats in the office, giving you a hard time about jobs, poking your head around the corner to make sure we said good morning and night to each other every day (arguably the best part of the day) , you giving me a hard time about glass sizes (lol), your smile, laugh, life advise, and inside jokes we had. . I am filled with immense gratitude that I had the privilege to get to know you, you were truly one of a kind. I still had so many things to tell you but for now rest easy. Until we meet again pimp. <3

My Name Is Jody, and I know Uncle Mike from Circle Glass. Around work he was known as Uncle Mike, Glass Bad Ass, Chief, and Michael Allen. I loved everything about that man, especially his reeses and visor addiction. Uncle Mike was a very loud, opinionated, caring human. He always had the best answers to any problem you may have had. Most of the time it would be ""Get on it"" He always spoke very highly of his family, and you could tell how much love and support there was there. The day he passed, he had a wonderful and funny conversation with my coworker and I about movies that he no longer wanted and asked if i wanted them. After finding out what kind of movies they were and that they were on VHS, I lovingly said no thank you :) 

He will be loved and missed by sooooooooooooooooooooo many people. My heart is with his family, and I am here if needed, for anything.

My brother Michael was a rare bird. He loved the little things in life; he loved to laugh and make you laugh.  I miss him by the hour.  He always introduced me as his "little sister" because although I am younger, I was just a bit taller than him most of our life and he got a kick out of it.  Michael was compassionate and understanding.  I can't recall when he raised his voice to anyone. He did, however, have a "firm" and serious voice...rarely used but you knew he meant business.  I can go on for days. I am just so sad you left us so soon my brother. I will miss you until I see you again. Your Little Sister
