Michael was a great member of the VA Gun Trader, a wounderful friend, an excellent source of knowledge and wisdom. I am honoured to have known him, and met him. Michael is now resting, and one day, we will see him again. Until then my Brother,
Semper Fi!

This is sad news indeed. Michael was no quitter and a good person to know for sure. I take solace in knowing that his pain is over and he is at peace now.

I only knew him via the shoutbox. Never had a bad conversation with him and he was a great guy to talk to. I hope he is in a better place with no pain. I hope his family in time has peace.

I'm glad I got to meet this fine man/veteran before he departed this world.
Rest peacefully, Marco

Michael went out of his way to help me (and others) with his knowledge of small engines. Something he had done hundreds of times with people on this forum. That kind of knowledge the average joe just doesn't possess. You only get it with years of experience.
He was an optimist, even to the end. It definitely would have been easier to just toss it in but, he was not like that.
I hope he is at peace and that Trader and the ShoutBox provided support even if it was a joke/distraction from life.
Be most excellent to each other.
-Halligan

Only knew him thru the SB. Never a bad word about anyone. He was a gentleman and I enjoyed the conversations we had. He will be missed greatly.

Really sad news. I talked to Mike regularly in the SB and then really became friends late last year and talk every week or two after that. I will be there Thursday.
