Mike was wonderful to work with and though it was a very short time, I was very glad to have met him. He was so helpful to me and was always smiling, that's how I'll remember him.
Mike - thank you for working hard at NASA for many years. We've flown hundreds of biology experiments in space during your time at Ames, and you were instrumental to our quest to expand mankind's horizons in space. We could always count on you to be extremely helpful and positive in all the work that you did. We are forever grateful to all that you've done.
Mike - thank you for always greeting me with a smile, for making light of your work, and lightening mine. You were kind to everyone around you, never left anyone out, and welcomed everyone in. You remembered me even when I took 7 years off from Ames. I'm grateful that I got to know you. Your steady kindness will always be an example for me to follow.
It was just a year or so that Mike and I knew each other and worked together. But, we quickly became friends. Mike was very personable and helpful. Enjoyed trading memories of places visited and events experienced inside and outside of work. He will be missed by many at Ames!
Mike- Thank you for asking for help in the MCS, if it wasn't for you I would not have come to NASA Ames. I will always remember your smiling face as we worked together as a team in the MCS. Your insight of how things worked around the center and your big smile as we shared some laughs within the MCS. You will be missed here, RIP my friend!!
Mike, it was joy to know you. You were ever helpful and patient in helping me both request items from and submit items to the MCS. I still look for you every time pass through 240. Your friendship will remain in my memory forever.
Mike, thank you for all you've done for us over the years. Your sense of humor prevails. We need that around here. I'm sure you're up there, cracking up your angel colleagues now. We will miss you.
