I'm in Sandman!!! Let me be the first to donate. I can't imagine how you guys closest to Mike and his family are going through right now. I just feel empty and sad.

I'll give my 2 minutes of silence by not logging onto any posts for a few days. I'll only respond to posts honouring Mike and family.

I always hate to read such sad news, and although I never had the privilege of meeting Mikey V. face to face, I did have the pleasure of reading his posts and dealing with him when he helped other members (and me) with business transactions by allowing them to use his PayPal account to simplify payments. I know any person who would so willingly help out had to have a great personality and a huge heart!
He, and his family, will be included in my thoughts and prayers. And I know he will be missed by many of us, including me.

I've been gone all day and when I got back I opened the "Tribute To Red Label".

I thought the guys must be giving Red Label a well earned pat of the back for something or another. When I got to the post by Don that said “To Mike, thanks for being a friend, you will be missed. I couldn’t believe it..

I then opened this thread.

I never met Mike but he was MY FRIEND. I am sitting here typing this with tears rolling down my cheeks.

I can not believe that he is gone.

Yes, he was one in a million..

My sincerest prayers to his family for comfort.

Please excuse me . I’ll try to get back on here later when I’m more composed.

I cant believe what im reading, my condolences to Mikes family. I am touched by this loss, i only met Mike one time but felt he was a friend through this forum, like Woody i find myself deeply hurt because of Mikes passing.
For all those he left behind.....Mike will be remembered, he was a good man and willing to help others, a very rare trait in todays world.

He will be missed.

sad, sad news

I had to read it few times as somebody said.
I cannot believe my eyes.

I didn't have time to read this forum for some month now.
I couldn't even recover my old password, so I registered again to post.

I never met Mike, but I knew him from this forum, he also sent me some
e-mails a while ago. He's always been very nice, friendly and wanted to
help.

Condolences to the family.
If I can help with anything I will.

Like he did for other members, Mike was the one who posted my pictures as well before I figured out how to do it myself.

Mike and his posts with all the great pictures will surely be missed by all of us on this forum...

take care Mikey!
