I loved his first book......I'm a longtime fan of this amazingly talented guy. Very sad to see him have to let go of acting.

He has shown us what real courage is and helped us understand his illness better. Thank you Michael for giving us so much

Talented, gracious, faithful (as far as I know, he’s been married to Tracy Pollard since ‘88).

I’m thankful for his contributions to the entertainment industry, and that they can be enjoyed for generations!
