Michael Leonard Rawle "Mike" (8 Dec 1957 - 26 Mar 2014)

We were so shocked and saddened to hear of Mike's sudden passing. Julie and I will keep happy memories of chats in the warm Malta sun watching cricket and between innings where you umpired so efficiently. Heaven has gained a true gentleman.

May you rest in peace mike. We had some great experiences together, which i fondly reflect on , and shall never forget.

a true gentleman who I had the pleasure to work with and the honour to know.

A truly lovely man. I worked my first shift on an ambulance with Mike many years ago. He was so kind and patient. RIP Mike.

Was a true gent who I used to love talking to for hours about sport. Will be sorely missed

A man who touch so many hearts, and did so much for so many. R.I.P. Mike

Thank you for everything during my time as a cadet in Newton Abbot, lots of wonderful memories.
You will be missed.
RIP xx

Thanks Mike, for the happy shifts. A great guy, genuine and honest. Sadly missed. Rest easy.

Seems like only yesterday we chatted about Malta. It was not long ago he shook his head when I asked for an LB and raised his finger when I missed a straight one ! A true gent if ever there was one. You are going to be missed my friend.

Said it before and I will say it again .. a true gent.

My husband and I met Mike and Joyce in Luxor, when they were here on holiday 2003. Such a lovely, happy couple.
We were so, so sad when we heard the news. Still can't believe it. Mike will be always in our hearts.
Our deepest condolences and prayers for Mike's loved ones - family and friends.

Rest in peace, Mike.

Still can,t believe it. You were/ are a great person who is so going to be missed. RIP Mike will miss you.xx

A lovely man, I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to get to know you better Mike but I have a lovely picture of you and Aunty Joyce with Eliza when she was a baby that I cherish.
