Margot, I am so sorry for your loss. Toom, Henry and I are so saddened by Mike’s sudden passing. He was so full of energy and kindness and I’ll never forget how you both went out of your way to make us feel welcome to the neighborhood. He set an amazing example of what a selfless person should be like. I will miss his humor, thoughtfulness and reliability. He was one of a kind and impacted so many lives with his giving nature. Love Mike, Toom and Henry McMackin

Dear Margot -
Mike & I spent a lot of time over the years working on claims together. In later years, this might involve being in the middle of a barn when he then told me "Oh yeah, I think there might be a hole somewhere under the straw around here!" (!?!) Or we might be near a big cow-field when I was in a suit and dress shoes, and Mike insisted we walk through the mud (and other stuff) to the other side to get another angle, "just to be sure, Davey!" We had a lot of fun. He was good guy. He will be missed.

Margo and family, please accept our condolences. Mike was a friend, a mentor and co-worker. He was one of the most honest, compassionate and caring guys I knew. From a customer service point of view he was the best claims adjuster of his time, always looking for ways to help people in their time of crisis. Mike was ever ready with a smile and a story and could find that elusive measure of good in any situation. He was one of the most resourceful guys I've ever met. It didn't matter if you needed your shoes shined, your car tuned up or open heart surgery, Mike knew a guy, who knew a guy, who knew a guy and would drop whatever he was doing to help you. I only hope St. Peter had a few extra hours when Mike arrived as Mike would certainly have many tall tales to tell, all the while sharing some sage advise on gate maintenance. He will be missed.

To the Nickerson family, I want to express my deepest sympathies on your loss. Mike and I briefly worked together, at the same insurance company in the 80’s and one day in the course of a regular conversation, we discovered that we were related to each other, on both of our father’s side of the family. Small world. I mentioned that my father had a first cousin by the name of Walter Nickerson and family members in Levi, Quebec.
So after that, Mike always addressed me as Cuz.
So glad I got to meet you Mike. RIP.
My condolences to Bonnie- Lee as well.

Margot and family, although we have never met I knew Mikey growing up. Mikey and my brother Norman Robichaud were friends and in fact once I moved out of our family home, Mikey moved in with my Mom and Norman for a bit. I remember recently after I had posted a picture on Facebook of my mom for Mother's Day, he responded by saying he missed 'Molly' a quirky name only Mikey could come up with. He said he loved her cooking except when she made those dirty snowballs. He was referring to an Acadian dish Poutine Rapee, which all Acadians adore. Mikey was loved by all who knew him. So sorry for your loss. He will be missed indeed.

Your first experience staying at Pirates Cove and given explicit instructions to turn off the water in the morning and mistakenly turning the wrong one off, our Thanksgiving golfing trips, getting married in your old home, playing cards and ringing in the New Years with Chinese food.
