Mikey you have the best soul I have ever met and you are the most genuine person I have ever met! You are also the funniest person that has ever walked the earth. You have made me laugh harder than anyone I’ve ever came across in my 26 years of life and that is no joke, the funniest thing I’ve ever heard come out of your mouth was to our therapist, you said and I quote “ you’re eyes are so beautiful they would look better in a jar” I know how you meant it but she didn’t and it was the funniest thing ever! God always gives the strongest souls the hardest battles and you beat your battle and overcame everything and I am so proud that you did that words can’t describe it, love you brother and will never forget the great times we had love you man and prayers to your family. Especially your mother god bless you guys and love yall.

Micheal,
I’ll never forget the long talks on the couch at recovery here In California. You were one of my first friends here && even when you went home, I knew I could call or text you anytime and youd answer every time! I will never forget that beautiful smile. You are truly special and unique and I will cherish our memories for my lifetime! You will always have a special piece of my heart! I know God was ready for you but I wasn’t ready to lose you! Rest Easy Mikey ❤️❤️

Oh Mikey, where do I begin? Your heart was gold and your strength was incredible. Your soul was one of a kind. I’ve known you for three years now time sure has flown by. The day we met we just clicked and you always brought a wonderful vibe when you came to visit in California. I enjoyed it every time you came out, I loved our talks that we would have for hours about astrology and conspiracy theories, and you were just an uplifting person, our conversations were always so raw and no matter all the things that you had going on in life you always had such a bright outlook. The one thing I loved about you the most was that you wanted everybody to just be at their best you wanted everybody to be successful in every way possible. I hope you understand and know how many lives you really truly did touch. I’m gonna miss the messages. I’m gonna miss hearing how you were doing in life and what your plans were or what you were accomplishing. I’m gonna miss the hugs and big smile I’d get every time I got to see you. I’m going to miss that laugh. We’re all going to miss you so much, Mikey. A lot of our hearts broke when we found out that we lost you, but you will forever be in our hearts. Watch over everybody, Mikey I bet you you’re beautiful angel. Love you so much ❤️❤️❤️

Michael was a very good friend of mine and one of the most optimistic people I have ever met. He was a big part of my recovery journey and changing my life in 2021 when I met him and he has always been a phone call away since then. He will be greatly missed, Love you Mikey Rest in Paradise.

Our dear, dear friend. The loss of you has devastated your family here in California. We love you and miss you more than you could possibly know. You have forever touched our lives, but we knew that already from when we all first met, we knew you were unique and special. Your love of God has always reminded all of us that we have the love of him and to stand faithfully on that. You would always make us laugh with your conspiracy theories. We have all had the opportunity to love you and be loved by you. We know that you are in the hands of God, and that brings us all peace. Your family in California love and miss you immensely.

Mike you are my best friend, my brother, and you mean so much more than what these words tell. We celebrated your life and through the tears and heartbreak you put smiles on our faces like you always have. You beat me to the cosmos and I wait for the day that I can hear all about this journey you have taken. Forever in my heart you are as well as the rest of the family. I know you are with the Lord and I feel you pushing me along. What your mom, dad, and sister have shown is nothing but strength in the Lord and I know you appreciate that. You are our angel now and I get to include you in all my works. Thank you for the memories we’ve shared and words of wisdom you’ve given me. We fought a hard fight and you helped me so much in becoming a warrior for the Lord. Until we meet again may God rest your soul. I LOVE YOU.

It is with a profound sense of sorrow that I bid farewell to my beloved baby cousin. Your infectious smile remains a cherished memory that illuminated numerous moments. Your smile, radiating warmth and joy from your earliest days, holds a special place in my heart. Memories of our days spent fishing by the pond behind my mother’s house, including the playful incident of you chasing a turtle into the water, bring a smile to my face. It is indeed difficult to grasp that the little boy I cradled 29 years ago is no longer with us. Rest assured, you are deeply loved and will forever remain in our hearts.
Love you always ,
You eldest cousin
