Condolence: My deepest sympathy to the Dowson family. May Gods word bring your family some peace and comfort during this difficult time. Revelation 21:4 “he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more neither will mourning nor out cry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Beg God for endurance until that time comes.

Condolence: I was very saddened to hear of Mike's death. He and I performed together a number of times some years ago. Our styles were well matched and I loved his powerful piano style. He was a man of great integrity, always truthful to the spirit of the music. Top shelf player, great guy who will be sadly missed by the Mississauga/Oakville music communities and well beyond. My thoughts are with his family in their time of grief. Rest in peace my friend!

Condolence: So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. Mike was a great musical friend and was instrumental in forming a band with me 30 years ago that is still going strong today. He was a terrific keyboardist and would go out of his way to connect musicians to gigs and each other. He always had a number of musical business ideas and projects going and never shied away from trying them out, often with a lot of success. One of his last projects was the "Yellow Piano Jams" which were always a joy to be part of. Mike will be missed.

Condolence: Michael was a dedicated and completely professional musician. He loved to play and was committed to expressing himself through music. Sincerest condolences.

Condolence: So sorry to hear of Michael's passing. He was a consummate professional, a supremely versatile piano man and singer and an ardent advocate for musicians and the live music scene. Michael lit up every room in which he performed and made hundreds of performances by others possible by organizing gigs and shows. A mischievous smile and wry sense of humour went hand in hand with a very astute intelligence. He understood the industry he was in and instinctively knew how to delight audiences and fellow performers alike. Irreplaceable and unforgettable, he'll be much missed.
