My heart felt condolences go out to all of the Harris family and close friends of Michael. I was a classmate of Michael's from Birchwood Elementary School. Though with the passing of the years many details of memories fade, what has always stayed strong to me is the feeling of kindness when thinking of Micheal. His name and positive energy of being have never faded for me. Because I went to Hills and he went to Knolls, I don't remember much interaction after the sixth grade. Though, I do explicitly remember how nervous I was when we were doing square dancing in sixth grade gym class and how relieved I was when Micheal was my partner. Around 2008, I was elated to meet him again at a party hosted by our mutual friend Michele. My heart leapt up when I realized it was Micheal Harris! It's hard to recall all of the specifics of our conversation, but once again what is strong is my memory of the warmth of being in his presence, and I remember him talking about his family and how proud and lucky he was. I remember being happy for him and realizing how special it was that he and Andrea found love and started their family in their young twenties. Reading through this very honoring and beautifully written obituary of him, I'm so grateful to learn more about him and readily see how much he shared with his family and has passed on to his children. I saw some photos of them and I can see Michael in their eyes. May his memory radiate in the hearts of all who love him.

When I moved home to NJ in 1999, a couple years later my mother's Maytag clothing dryer had a squirrel's nest in it. I called a local Maytag shop in Dover for help and direction of how to fix it. I wonder if that's the one you both worked at?
