There aren't any words to describe how I feel for all of you. I am deeply saddened because Michael was truly a wonderful man, husband,and father.

- Janet Holland Waters, Pooler, GA

Susan, I was so sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Karen Hanes

- Karen Hanes, Peachtree City, GA

I'll always have fond memories of Michael... like the time he stopped by to say hello; as usual, he was well groomed & dressed impeccably. I on the otherhand, was in the middle of re-painting the master bedroom, Michael decided he should help... there he was, looking like he'd walked out of a photo shoot with GQ, rolling paint on my walls and he never spilled a drop! My condolences go out to his entire family; we'll all miss Michael very much.

Susan, Bill & Family, I am so sorry to hear about Michael's accident. Please know that you are in my prayers. Linda

To My Michael, In our lives, you have cut down trees for my Mama, taught me how to swim, and burned up the phones lines from Maryland to Statesboro while we were in college. You helped me through being a widow at 24, and fighting for my children in divorce at 33. We have been through the illnesses of our parents together. We helped one another though your long illness finding out that our bond was a strong one. Our lives had come full circle, able to have a last dance. At the end, knowing that we were always soul mates and knowing what the other needed even when we didn't know ourselves. Our friendship and bond was not ever broken by circumstances but groomed through the many many years to grow and be stronger. Know that I will always love you! You were my best friend indeed! To George, Rita,Susan and Bill, May God hold your hand through this unbearable time! I love all of you and will always think of you as my other family! God bless you all! I love you, Suzanne

Our prayers are with your family

The daisy was gland to stand out in the grass..it felt very grateful; and when the sun went down it folded its leaves and went to sleep, and dreamed all night about the sun. Hans Christian Anderson.

Michael was always there for the Dillon family. He brought Christmas trees to my mother many years on 52nd Street. He was there at the birth of my son. He was Uncle Michael to my children, Alisanne and Dillon. He was a friend to my husband, Chris. He was a brother to me. I will always cherish Michael as a member of my family. May you be happy in heaven.
