Dear Michael’s Family,
I am deeply saddened by this loss and would like to express my sincere condolences to your family.
I had the privilege of knowing Michael for nearly three years. Although we met through TikTok and never had the chance to meet in person, we became very good friends. Over time he became the heart and soul of our community and team. Everyone respected and valued him deeply.
For almost three years we spoke every single day. There was hardly a day when we didn’t exchange messages. On the morning of February 17, he wrote that he had woken up and was feeling a little better. After that message, he stopped responding, and I immediately felt that something was wrong.
Michael was someone with whom it was always easy and meaningful to talk. He shared stories about his life, his family, his work, and the dreams and plans he was building for the future. He loved sharing the small beautiful moments of life — especially sunsets, and even photos from his nighttime shark tooth hunting. Those moments showed how much he appreciated the world around him.
He was a calm, kind, and genuinely warm person. A bright and wonderful friend whose presence meant a lot to many of us. I will truly miss him.
Please know that my thoughts and heartfelt sympathy are with your family during this difficult time. I wish you strength, comfort, and support as you go through this profound loss.
I would also like to express my gratitude to Michael’s daughter for staying in contact with me during this time. I understand how difficult this must have been for her, and yet she still found the strength to communicate with me. I am very thankful for that.
With deepest sympathy and respect,
Alinoiiz, Alina
We knew each other through a shared friend Alina, Alina and Mike, as I knew him we're very close and bestie's so of course me and him got to know each other a little bit over time, most of our interactions involved laughing about certain things we had witnessed together or drama as well as always a smattering of me asking what must have seen the most foolish of questions about fossils and other ancient life artifacts he had proquired or had interest in at the time. And if one memory was to stand out one of the others, it would have been when he changed his profile picture to that of Alina as her number one support and moderator and I thought he was her... And he let me continue that for a bit lmao 😅
He said he loved it when people mistaked him for her, and he was especially proud of the plane tickets he had been offered to come and visit these people 🤣🤣💀 we had more than a couple laughs about this. He was a good guy, who was generosity was known by many, if not the man himself. He shall be missed 🙏 RIP my friend
