The world lost an amazing man, and way too soon. RIP Mike, we already miss you. My heart is hurting for you Carole. Much love.
Mike was a wonderful guy. Him and carol always made us feel at home at their house. I always loved getting together with both of them. We always had the best time at their place or at ours. He was taken too soon from this world, but we will cherish the times we had with him.

I’m Talking To You – An Ode To Mike
You have a heart of gold, but your heart was old
and you left us far too soon
Big mitted hands, help your fellow man
You are warmth in every room.
You never did yell, you were never mean
You took each day as it came
You cast no asperisons, you did not judge;
You never put people to shame.
Mike can you help me? What do you need?
A screen room, a fence and a deck
I’m glad to help, I need a whiskey and measurements
Now go to the store with these specs.
You guys wanna come over, it’s been a while
A nice meal, some cards, what do you think?
I’ll go ask Carol, we’ll be there for 7
No effort, great laughs, another drink.
I don’t know if there’s a god or if there’s a heaven
If there is, you’re probably looking down
Saying: so sorry everyone, for all this pain
but I have to go now and help this other clown.
I miss you Mike, I love you, you’re a good friend.
Mic
Carole, my sincere condolences. May you feel comforted by the embrace of your loved ones.
This world truly lost a beautiful person.
To have known and worked with Mike as long as I did I truly feel blessed.
Our sincere sympathy to you Carole in the loss of Michael. He was such a great guy to everyone who was so fortunate to have known him. As cousins living afar we always appreciated and enjoyed the times we did have together and will always cherish the memories. We sincerely enjoyed our visit to your place when we travelled to Winnipeg not that long ago. It’s so shocking and sad that he left us all so soon. Rest in peace big Mike till we meet again one day
Carol , My sincere condolences to you & the family.
Love and prayers are with you Carole. Let us know if you need anything at anytime . Mike we are going to miss you big time! But I know that you were happy in life and enjoyed everyday. That’s the only good thing that puts me at ease. You didn’t suffer, and you left us in the best possible way. I will forever miss you as all your buddies will. Rest in piece my friend. love Dave and Chris
My condolences. He was a good person with a big heart. He will be missed.
I just can’t wrap my head around this. It’s impossible to believe we won’t see you anymore. Those giant blue eyes, those giant hands, that giant heart. And that contagious laugh. So many hilarious memories with you and Carole: weekends at the lake, Cuba, our various cabin rentals together, playing cards, so on. I will miss you. I will even miss your subtle rearranging of my house pranks. I hope you can rest peacefully knowing you were loved and appreciated by so many people. Love you always Mike and Carole!
I didn’t know Mike for a long time but did enjoy his company whenever we did meet,he lit up a room with his presence.You will be sadly missed by many Mike
Our heartfelt condolences to you all on the loss of your dear husband , brother and uncle. We’re thinking of you all.
Carol so sorry to hear about Mike, MIKE WAS A EXCEPTIONAL PERSON.
So sorry to hear of your loss Carol. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
So saddened by this huge loss! Feel truly blessed to have known and worked with Mike for as long as I did. This world lost a special person.
My deepest condolences Carole and family. I can’t imagine how difficult this time is for you all. The shock of losing Mike who was a wonderful son in law, brother, uncle, husband and friend is inconceivable. Mike was truly an amazing guy who gave a lot to others and never asked for anything in return. He will always hold a special place in my heart ❤️ because of the time we spent together. Mike, you will always be loved and never forgotten because you made that much of an impact on so many lives. Lianne Tetlock.
Mike was the nicest, most caring and funny individual I had the privilage to work with. He was such an amazing person!
Sorry for your lose, he will be missed
So unfortunate! I haven’t seen Mike in a long time, but certainly did back in the day. Always had a smile, and Great sense of humour. Have lots of memories hanging out with him, and Andy….possibly a couple of bevies were involved. You will be missed Mikey!
Carol and family….such an unbelievable loss…Mike was a great guy, with a huge smile and warm heart. So sorry for you all, he left a huge footprint on this earth…rest in peace my friend
Sending you much love and strength Carole. To say Mike was special is a gross understatement. Such a unique friend his passion for life totally infectious. Getting us all off our ass’s for Jets games, camping, cards, Haddags, fishing and sledding and all the group together he was the rock and made it all look easy. Such a huge part of what we do and why we do it. Crushed but better off for knowing you.
Vichnya Pamyat (Memory eternal) Big guy.
My friend,
The whole of you will be forever weaved within me.
Thank you for your love and your friendship and for sharing a tiny part of your life with me and my son.
I have wept day and night, and I will weep until my heart forgets to do so.
All my love, Trudy and Lucas
Bob and I would like to extend our deepest sympathes to you and both families at this time. Carole if you need anything or of you just want to talk, I will be here if you need me
.
Carole there is nothing more I can say. Mike was your gift from heaven, your beshert (soul mate). Got to keep teaching you new words. It is a tragedy that he was taken too soon. I will think of him every time I go into my rec room. He fixed so many mistakes made by a so called carpentry specialist. Take care of yourself. With love
Abe & Toni
We only barely knew Mike but my dog Teddy Bear absolutely loved him, she would run away from home and we knew where to find her. He was good and kind.
So sorry to read this Carole, my sincere condolences.
Dear Carole , my Deepest condolences for you and Mike’s family during this difficult time. He was a very Special person and as time goes forward the memories that you had with him can be looked back on and held close to you’re heart. I am here for you if you ever want a shoulder to lean on . With love , Auntie Jennie.
Carole, we are so very sorry for your loss. We cry when we think of you, when we think of Mike, and when we think of everyone who is hurting without him. We pray you find the strength in your family and the love from your friends. We are here for you.
In time the pain will fade but never the memories. With my sincere and heartfelt condolences.

Carole
My sincere heartfelt condolences. Please if you need anything know we are all here for you. Big hugs. Looking forward to us sharing many more memories
Carole. I am so very sorry to hear about Mike’s sudden passing. I was in total disbelief when Linda told me. Even though I haven’t known you and Mike that long, you both have imprinted on me as great, super kind, and loving people. Mike was such an old soul with ‘teddy bear’ like qualities. His talent to fix, repair and build things was amazing. I’m going to miss his presence when I come back to visit Winnpeg in the summer months. Prayers and strength to you and both families.

I was so shocked when Bear told me about Mike. We’ve known Mike for a long time, he was like family. We will truly miss him. Rest easy Mike.
