Michael was friend to many. We shared the same birthday. He always had a smile on his face. Wanda, our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Wanda, my most sincere condolences to you and Michael’s family. Michael will be greatly missed by all of us. Michael and I went back to the old days when he first came to work at PMT. He was a great person to be around, always positive and upbeat. We had some good times in those days and some very deep conversations about what he wanted to do and where his life was going. Michael was a good friend to many and a great co-worker to everyone. Even when he was not feeling well, he tried to keep a positive attitude and stay in the mood. He was Irish after all. If everyone had Michael’s attitude and approach to life and work, we would be in a better place. Michael, you will truly be missed and will not be forgotten.
