Michael Anthony Middleton

Hey Mike, even though I only work for the Bruce Company for 13 years I really appreciate the help and knowledge you gave me when I was a new man on the block you will be missed. Thank you very much. David Youngs semi driver.

Mike, I always enjoyed our conversations. Your wit and humor never failed to put a smile on my face or to create a great opportunity for shared laughs. Thank you for always being a kind, welcoming face and truly great human. You will be forever missed. Teresa

Mikee, Thanks for being an awesome brother in-iaw, I will miss all our fun texts and your amazing laughter.. I will forever miss you!!!

Hey Mikey- I just found out today that you had passed. As you may have known, your big bro Richard & I have been working together (him at Bruce Co & me at Weed Man) for the however many years & when he stopped by the office today, I asked “How’s Mikey doing?” I felt so bad I didn’t know. From the early mornings down at The Farms digging trees for 7 years to the late nights at The Branch, ya always made me laugh. You were always helpful, kind, patient, and taught me how to do so much down there I never had before. Not just that, but I respected you & you gave me that respect back, even being the “new kid on the block,” my 1st year down at Sunset, Fahey, & Brown. Those Saturday mornings when we both regretted playing “Shot Wars” at The Branch the night before and having a tough Saturday…but then both going back for another night at The Branch on Saturday, I always knew I could count on laughing nonstop & having a blast. My deepest condolences to the family & to the countless friends who knew you, too. You were one of a kind, Mikey. I hope you’re at peace & free from pain of all types, too. I hope to see you again, my friend. r/S, Matt Tonsager
