Hey dad. I don't know what to put down, but it's been 17 whole years without you. I'm a big kid now, going to see if I can get into art school. Been told I look like you a lot. I'm not gonna be sad about it, though-- I know you're watching over me. I'll try to smirk through photos like you do, haha. Love, one'a your kiddos.

Mike, Another Xmas has come and gone and we miss you terriby but your family has kept your memory alive. Xmas Eve the family gathered, including your two sons, and I thought of how much you have missed. Malik graduated from DePaul this past June and Cullen will graduate from Oklahoma University next year. Things changed when we lost you but we went on to make sure you were not forgotten.

Love forever, Mom

Mike today Heaven gained another Angel, she fought to the very end it took everything I had left to tell her it was okay to go that she could rest now. I’ve lost the two people I loved most in this world. Please show her the ropes up there.

There are no Good-Byes only Love

Mike,
Another holiday season is upon us, for me it’s only a reminder that you are not here to celebrate with your family.. No matter how many years pass the hurt stays the same.. You are forever loved and missed.
There are no Good-Byes only Love...

Think of you every day. I wish I could have changed places with you 16 years ago so that you could have been with your children. Please keep watch over all of them, plus your two brothers and your Mother. Our lives were all changed when we lost you. Miss you every day.

Love,
Dad

Where has the time gone, I cannot believe that your EOW is coming up, hard to believe that 16 years has almost passed. So much time, but never forgotten. You dad has always know when to send me something via email to bring my spirits back up, I bet you were just like him. Time does not heal the pain in our hearts, but we know that one day we will be reunited with our loved ones and when the time comes there will be a great party in heaven. Continue to rest in peace and watch over your family. HEROES are not forgotten, and you sir are a HERO.

Wishing you a Happy Easter. We have this Virus pandemic going on across the country and the world killing people. Two CPD Officers have died from it so far. Another holiday without you, no one will be here today with this sickness so maybe it will be a little easier without you this year. Every day we think about you and I wish I could have traded places with you. Love and miss you, Mom and Dad

Love,
Mom and Dad

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mike,

You are missed more then words could ever possibly say... Never forgotten.. Forever missed... There are no good-byes only love...

Miss you every day. There are no words to describe the emptiness in ones heart unless you experience the loss of a child. Your daughter has turned sweet 16 and your two sons are finishing college. The last 16 years have passed with family events where we have had your photo with us, especially the Cubs Rooftops for your foundation where all your friends are present remembering you. You will never be forgotten. Wanted to stop in and say I love and miss you.

Love,
Dad

Merry Christmas Mike. Your brothers left about an hour ago. You came up a number of times in stories that we passed on to your sons. It's so hard for me to sit and pretend I'm having a good time while my heart can never be the same with you gone. I left a blue strobe on all night so you could find us and be a part of our gathering. You will never be forgotten. Love Dad

Love,
Dad

Dear Mike...I prayed for you at mass this morning...and because it is Veterans Day...I also want to say "thank you"...for your service in the Army.

God bless you...as you keep watching over your dear parents...your immediate...and extended family...who all love and miss you.

You are not forgotten!

Gordon family, I'm a retired CPD Officer of two and a half years. Before my retirement, I was assigned to the 001st District/Bt. 105. Every day that I worked, I would physically walk and make my rounds through our memorial. I would greet Michael's photo, as well as all our fallen brothers and sisters, with kind words and a salute. I don't bring this up for recognition, but only to let you and so many other family members and friends know that the fallen are never forgotten.

Though I'd stop in and say hello. Not a day passes that I don't think about you. They say this process gets easier as life goes on, it has some but the past 15 years has taken it's toll. I miss you every day and wish I could have traded places with you so you could have spent the time with your children. Continue to keep watch over them and the rest of the family for me. Love and miss you

Love,
Dad
