Very sad, and am very sorry to hear that news. He was a good member of the Forestry Forum.
Prayers for his family and his friends.

Always had a time trying to pronounce his forum name...   ;)

Believe it was Tcsmpsi             

He impressed me with his sawmill shed build, and subsequent additions. A big loss.

 :(  my condolences as well  :(

I admired his vocabulary

[Texas Ranger]

His forum name was an acronym  for his business, the full name I cannot remember. It covered a lot of ground. 

[Roxie]

My heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends.  His contribution and friendship on the forum will be greatly missed.

the custom shop mikata protective service institute = tcsmpsi.

Michael was a philosopher and a free spirit.  It was always a pleasure to visit with him whenever I made it over to Livingston, Texas to work on the timberland that I was managing there.  He was one of the most unique individuals that I have ever met.  He will be missed here.  Rest in peace, Michael.

I will miss that unique mind of his.  He posted some very interesting ideas on this forum.  We were fortunate to have him as our friend.

Sorry for your loss TR. When we get over that 70 mark, we seem to lose more people.  God bless............

Thank you for that picture Don.

I had never really talked about age with Michael, assuming he was in my realm of years.  He was 61.

Sorry to hear about your loss TR.  It's comforting to know that, with God's grace, we will meet again in a far better place.

It is the entire Forum's loss.

[Chuck White]

Sorry to hear of the loss!

On this Forum, you can get really close to a lot of good people without physically meeting them, eye-to-eye!

He will be missed here!

[doctorb]

He was a unique contributor here.  I am sure he will be missed by many.

Another great soul departs this mortal plane.

My thoughts and prayers for the family and all our Forum friends who will miss his presence in this life.

May we all remember him...
