From kindergarten to now you have been such a consistent part of my life and loosing you has been so painful. I feel so lucky to have had 30 years of laughter and adventures. The love and light you bring to others will continue on. I love you to infinity Michael.

Michael was the free spirit that we all wish we were. His beauty and laughter were sweet music to everyone’s ears and forever we will hear the sounds of that light and his voice whispering loving thoughts. We love you and will miss you terribly, Michael. You took a piece of all of our hearts when you left us. Rest well my son.

Michael-
You will be missed, one of a kind. You taught me to love again and showed me that true love does exist. Your presence brought warmth and joy into my life, and your kindness and compassion touched my heart in ways words cannot fully express.
Though you are no longer here with us, you will forever remain in my heart. Your memory will continue to inspire me and remind me of the beautiful moments we shared. I will truly miss you, but I am grateful for the time we had together and the love you gave so freely.
Rest in peace, and know that you will always be loved and remembered

I met Michael when we both worked for ColdStone Creamery. Michael never failed to make me laugh. I also learned he had incredible artistic talent and gave him my drawing board, I know he would create wonderful art. When he moved to HI and posted pictures of that incredible place, I messaged him to say I was happy he was living in such a peaceful place. He told me to pack up and move to a place where my dreams come true. Knowing Michael was truly an honor. You are loved and will be greatly missed.

My husband and I met Michael when we were visiting Maui in 2022. He was so approachable, fun, exciting, and kind. We made an instant connection, and we ended up hanging out for the days after. It seemed as though we had known each other for years. He truly made a impact on us in a very short amount of time. I remember he encouraged my husband and I to follow our dreams and to do what makes us happy. I will never forget Michael and his genuine spirit!

Michael's laughter was a gift that brightened any room - a testament to his remarkable spirit and intelligence. His passion for life, selfless devotion to others, and courageous heart were truly inspirational. We are grateful for the wisdom he imparted through his thoughtful discourses; a true beacon of optimism amidst adversity. In remembrance of Michael, let us continue to laugh amid despair and radiate kindness as he did.

Our Mike, a one-of-a-kind person, who with that wild infectious laugh and spirit, made you feel like you were his bestest friend. It's safe to say he made almost everyone he met feel this way and it was so special. Together, we navigated our teenage years - so many Merrick and Bellmore street fairs, endless visits to The Outback where the cheesy fries and ranch were a must. Drives down to Jones Beach in the famous mustang and all the parks that we visited. There were summers that felt endless and there are so many people who share in these experiences with me. Mike was a magnet and we all were absolutely magnetized by his being and energy. He was a people gatherer! His adventurous heart brought most of us places we would've never gone to. Mike's story isn't over. His spirit lives on in our memories and all the rainbows we continue to see.
Always in our hearts and our night sky, keep shining your unique starlight!
Love Catherine Malone (Baker)
I'm so sorry I can't be there in person, but know I send my love and condolences to you Lauren and the rest of Mike's family.

Micheal always lived his life like it was an adventure. There was never a dull moment when spending time together. His love stretched beyond his small town of Merrick to Hawaii and all of his travels. He was like a traveling party. His love for others was loud and vibrant like his soul. My brother will forever be missed but always remembered as a spectacular human being that brought nothing but love and joy into my life.

You will forever be in my heart. If I had to pick one memory it would have to be when you planned a HUGE White themed barbecue when you had a backyard filled with friends you said, “Laurie, I bought all this food to bar b que and the truth is I don’t know how to barbecue!!” And that followed with your very contagious laugh with you batting your eyes at me and said, “But you’re a mom you know how right?” And with that in my all white outfit, I barbecued for everyone!! I love you now and always!! Fly high Rainbow Mike (my kids nickname for you!!)
