My deepest sympathies. I did not know Mike but my mother and Uncle (Laura and Allan Nourry ) shared so many memories and stories of Mike and his brothers and parents that I felt as if I did.

We were shocked and saddened to hear of the death of your dear Dad.
He was a good friend to so many. We always enjoyed talking with him.
He was always helpful and generous and kind. He will be greatly missed.
May God give you strength during this grieving time.

I am so very sorry to learn of Mike's passing. I have many fond memories of my old high school buddy, but probably my favourite is of us listening to his big collection of Stompin' Tom Connors records when our gang got together in his parent's basement rec room. I think Mike & I were the only ones who really enjoyed that and I know for sure we were the only ones who knew all the words to "Bud the Spud". I hope your own happy memories bring comfort to your families as you mourn the loss of this good man. My deepest sympathies to all of you.
Rest in peace, Mike....you have certainly earned it, my old friend.

I'm already missing our sometimes longwinded phone conversations. We could chat about anything and everything. Always fun to get together with an old friend. So glad we had a good visit just 2 weeks ago. It would be hard to find a better friend. Always ready to help a friend. Your struggle is now over. Rest In Peace my friend. Miss you Mike!

Even though he was sick for sometime now I always thought he would pull through , seems so wrong for him to be an angel now at such a young age . Mike gave me something special a few years back when Tom passed away and I also have so many great memories Fly High Mike you will forever be remembered
