To me, I always happiest when Mike was out with Martin Tubbs and I ( Richard "Scotty" Lazariuk ), he just had a away of making us all feel better about life and this man could make me laugh for days...

There is a saying that you meet the Best friends of your life in the Military there were many friends but only a few were the caliber of Michael, and that was Martin Tubbs, and Michael Schwenk.

I did not have any idea he was sick at all.... he was selfless that way, he did not want anyone to worry about him..

The Funeral was Beautiful and I loved the music, ( just his style ) You all have my Condolences from my family to yours, I will never forget him....

Semper Fidelis Mike, see you one day...Laz

Debbie so sorry for your loss , condolences to the family , Mike was selfless , helped everyone. A friend , A brother , a hell of a Marine , Rest In Peace Michael

Debbie, Claudia and Larry, (Denzel), we are sorry to learn of your devastating loss of Michael. Death, without question is a most painful enemy of mankind. Since death was never a part of God’s original purpose for humans he has laid the foundation for death to be eradicated, forever. God lovingly offered up his son Jesus as a sacrifice. As such, he open the way for humans to be resurrected from the grave to perfect endless life on a paradise earth.

Debbie take comfort in knowing your loss of Michael is only temporary because you will be there to welcome him back in the resurrection when God awakens those who fell asleep in death. John 5:28,29 Revelation 21:4, John 11:25 jw.org

Debbie, Claudia and I send our love and condolence.

Oh my love, Debbie, I am so sorry for your loss. I feel privileged to have been with you and your family as you said goodbye to your patriarch. What more could a man want, other than to be surrounded in such love and honor. God bless you all.
