Hello, this is Timur, Mikhail’s son.
I want to thank everyone who wrote such kind and heartfelt words about my father. Reading your messages truly brings me comfort during this difficult time. It means a lot to know how many lives he touched.
If you’d like to share a few more words or memories, you’re very welcome to post them on his Facebook page.

Right now, he is at the mortuary, and I’m in the process of arranging the cremation. I saw him for the last time yesterday and said my final goodbye. He was never afraid of anything not even death and he left this world with a smile on his face.
One of his last wishes was to have his ashes scattered in the ocean, like a true sailor. You all know how much he respected the Marine Corps and lived by “Semper Fi.”
I’ll keep you all updated. Please take care of yourselves and your loved ones. Life is fragile...
