Remembering Mike Dellamaria (@Retired UPS Driver)

[vkp78]

Sometimes its difficult to know a person from online interactions. But all I got from Mike was a sense of decency and goodness. We lost a good one.
I pray that Jesus comfort his family and loved ones in this tough time.

Ugh, gutted!

Gone WAY too soon!

With as big of a presence as he had here and elsewhere on these forums, he leaves a huge void behind!

Always loved his contributions and will sincerely miss him. He was for sure one of the "good ones".

Sincere condolences to his family and all the rest of his friends here.

What a loss.......

Mike's posts will always be here...

What terrible news to see, it is a very sad day indeed. We lost one of our most outwardly positive and kind members.
I only had a handful of personal interactions with Mike, but they were always so positive and meaningful. I will miss his bright and cheerful messages across this forum of ours.
May he rest peacefully and always be remembered for the kind soul that he was
My most sincere condolences to his family & close loved ones.
He was a good man, and will be missed.

My condolences to his family, friends and all of you here.
Mike’s presence and positivity will be sorely missed by so many of us.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but it always made me smirk when he posted a birthday cake for folks on here.
Such a good dude.

True definition of a class act. RIP buddy.

 

[Fixedwing]

So sad to hear this; I didn't know him, but based on the comments in this tread, I wish I had met him. May his family find peace with his passing.

 

[Sphinx3000]

A very familiar name on the forum. Rest in peace, fellow knife enthusiast.

There is little I can add that hasn't been expressed already, so I will only make one attempt at something useful. While we are all saddened, disappointed and hurt that he has unexpectedly passed, find some solace in the fact that you had the privilege and honor of knowing him in the first place. You will be missed, Mike, the honor was all ours.

 

[Tensegrity]

Mike's kindness and positivity were infectious. It was amazing to see how he seemed to read almost every single post (that I ever came across!) and pass on unending positivity, with his commenting on and/or tagging each and every one. A pillar of this community. Sincerest caring wishes for his loved ones.
