I meet Mike while I was a volunteer at MVFD Co.45, he was a good friend, great positive influence and mentor. We lost touch over the years and I am deeply saddened to have just learned of his passing. Rest in peace my friend.

I just heard of Michael’s passing and wanted to send my condolences to his entire family. Michael was my high school boyfriend for a time. I’m sharing our prom picture. We lost touch, of course, but years ago, long before facebook, he found me. I got a call...Hi, it’s Michael and we stayed in touch over the years. We shared our family stories and the happenings in our lives. I will always have those fond memories. RIP Michael💐 Lynn Bull Johnson
Mike, you will be missed more than you ever could have imagined! You were an inspiration to so many of us, and you left a positive mark on this world that will not be forgotten.
Mike Wright, Iron Mike and Mike. He was a mentor, a leader and a great friend. About 30 years ago, Mike started a powerlifting group of teens at St. Pauls' Church in Marlton. This group was known as the Iron Workers. My son, Richard Parks was lucky enough to be one of the members of that group. Mike started this group partly as a way to give the young people somewhere to go besides the streets. He was successful! He was kind, compassionate and dedicated to this group of young people. Among other teens, Mike was at my sons side, in Houston, Texas, when Richard won the World's title in his division as well as setting a few Maryland state records. This was all due to the dedication and determination that Mike put into this group. The entire group was a complete success all thanks to Mike and to make things even better, this was a totally steroid free group. Mike claimed all wins were by the strength of God. Richard, and the other members were very fortunate to be taken under Mike's wing.
Today, as I say my last farewell to Mike, he will be joining Richard in Heaven. I'm sure they will have a lot to catch up on. Mike, I will truly miss our friendship, rest in peace.
