It is tough to lose my elder brother, but know it’s worse for his immediate family.
Sorry to hear that Michael died. He was a good neighbour, our physician until he retired and a good friend. May God rest his soul and revere his memory.
Garry and I are sorry to hear about Michael. Garry still remembers his conversations with Michael many years ago and how he found him to be such a fascinating man. Our heartful condolences to you, Brigitte and also Katrin. Take care. I think of you both often.
Barbara and I are sorrowed to learn of the passing of Michael. It was our distinct pleasure to have enjoyed Sir Michael’s company and friendship at many of the 14 (Calgary) Service Battalion gatherings, of which he was a former Commanding Officer. I am forever grateful for his advice and support. Our sincere condolences to his family.
On behalf of the members of 41 Service Battalion (formerly 14(Calgary) Service Battalion), I would like to pass on our deepest condolences to the family of LCol O’Sullivan. Until recently, he was in regular contact with the unit at various unit events. He was always interested at what was happening at the unit and in the military. His presence will be missed.
LCol G.A. Haight
Commanding Officer
