Michael, my friend it's hard to believe that it's been 16 years. I miss you more and more, I miss your advice that you always were willing to give. Wether I liked it or not it was the right advice. I also miss your sense of humor and all the things that we did together. This will never change. Until we meet again my friend. Keep everyone laughing

Mike,
No matter what life dished out You remained true to your heart and soul. You were a BEAUTIFUL PERSON to All that knew you. I'm sure even a stranger could see the LOVE in your eyes or handshake. I Miss You Mike! Your Spirit remains with All of us still here and we all hope to be re-united with You someday.

We were sad to hear about Mike's death. Several years have passed since seeing Mike. I remember the Maramba family as a kid on Longwood Drive and Warren knew Mike and his family later as a teenager. He and Mike played softball together for many years.Those were really fun times. We heard about Mike's death from Bob Calder. We went camping with Mike a few times when his boys were small. I sure remember Mike's smile and friendliness. From reading the guestbook entries, he was very loved and will be missed. We really wanted to attend his wake but we were out of town. Our sympathies to his family and all of his close friends.

Mikey,
You were everyone's best friend and so much more. I will miss your unexpected stops over at my house and our golf games at Bleekers. I love you and will help to watch over your boys for you.
Your loving sister, Rae

Jim and Mona, I wish I could take away the hurt for my little brother and my great sister-in-law, but I can't. I can only say some prayers and hope for a bit of comfort for the entire Miramba family. Much Love, Kathy and Dick

I never got to say goodbye and I wish I never had to. My godfather was a great role model. I only hope I will be as good an uncle to my nephews as Uncle Mike was to me. I will search the backyards for a bag player of his caliber and probably never find it. There is a big hole in my heart to fill. We appreciate everyone's support.

Mike - we spent alot of Sundays together thru years of softball. Lots of "Fajita Sundays" at that. Although the last couple years our meetings were few - you and the family were never far from our thoughts. You will truly be missed. May God bless you and your family.

MICHAEL MY BEST FRIEND FOR OVER 30 YEARS. YOU LEFT US ALL WAY TOO SOON. GETTING THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT YOU WILL BE MOST DIFFICULT. I WILL STILL ASK FOR YOUR GUIDANCE AND WISDOM. YOU WILL NEVER BE GONE FROM MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. YOU HAVE LEFT AN EMPTYNESS IN MY LIFE THAT NO OTHER COULD EVER FILL. I HOPE THAT YOU HAVE AN ETERNITY OF LOVE AND HAPPINESS, LIKE YOU SHOWED EVERYONE THAT YOU CAME IN CONTACT WITH. I HOPE THAT YOUR SLICE HAS BEEN CORRECTED AND EVERY SHOT IS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU WERE AND STILL ARE IN EVERYONES HEART.

I will greatly miss Mike. I worked with Mike through the good times and bad. I will say with Mike there were more good then bad. I remember the times we spent working long hours to get the job done, and if Mike was tired he kept working and giving out orders. I am truly sorry that I am out of town and will not be able to attend his services. Mike might have been a co-worker but he was a great friend and a great golfer. I will miss those golf games.

Michael "Mike" Maramba left us suddenly, but he left behind his unique laughter, smile and life long friendship. As a friend and colleage, everyone enjoyed his presence and overall knowledge, which he shared willingly. Anyone who knew Mike knew that he really enjoyed life and lived it to the fullest. Like playing golf and baseball which he was very good at.
We will miss his humor and his loudness echoing thru the halls of the suntimes building.....TODAY!.....TODAY!.....meaning hurry and finish your work in his polite way of putting it. but that was Mike and that's what made him special.
But most of all were our talks where he listened to whats going on in our lives then he talked about his family who he loved and was very proud of.
We thank God for the good times we spent with Mike. Nothing will be the same without him. He was our best friend, and a leader we could count on.
To the family we will always remenber Mike and You and keep all of you in our hearts and prayers

Michael, I always told everyone you were my BABY brother, but it seemed as if you always took care of me. I will miss you more than you can ever imagine. I know the Lord is taking care of you, so I want you to know I will try to help and take care of your boys. Smile down on me now and than, because I will be thinking of you everyday. I love you. Pat
