I met Michael through my husband and found him to be so welcoming. I would often bump into him locally and he would always stop for chat and no doubt make me laugh with his sense of humour. He was so excited for us when we had our first son and showed up with flowers and kind words after the difficult birth of our second. I will never forget how much that meant to me - how his kindness and acknowledgement at that difficult time made it that little bit easier. It was clear to see he had a good heart. I pray that he rests in peace. My thoughts, prayers and love are with his family at this time.
