BUCKLES, Michael Shawn, November 26, 1967 – December 28, 2010. It is with great sadness that we announce the tragic passing of Michael Buckles. Michael was born in Maple Ridge, BC, and grew up in Whonnock. He was a loving soul that left us far too soon. He lived life to the fullest and was a positive influence to all those around him. He will be dearly missed.
Michael is lovingly remembered by his daughter Kaycee, his parents Ken (Monica) and Shirley (John), his brother Joseph (Laura), his sister Tamie (Darren), his nephews Jeremy and Jaden, his niece Emma and his partner Vicki.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Pitt Meadows Golf Course - 13615 Harris Road, Pitt Meadows at 1pm Saturday, January 8, 2011. Memorial donations can be made to the British Columbia Search and Rescue Association.
Arrangements under the direction of Woodlawn Mission Funeral Home, Mission, BC.

I only met Mike a few times (many, many years ago) through his brother Joe. I heard about the accident back in December but didn't get the name. My heart goes out to all his family.

Sitting here, thinking.. searching for something to say that would express my feelings.. but I can't.. We all (and you know who I am talking about) .. the boys .. this .. group of now middle aged men .. who have lived our lives one adventure after another, with story after story .. one more crazy than the last .. stuff that "normal" people .. well they just don't even believe .. We have all lived our lives to the very fullest and smiled and enjoyed every damn second .. good times and bad ... hell the bad we just found some way to twist into something funny or worth drinking over.. I am just ranting now..But today . I looked around at my friends..and I realized that I would give the shirt off my back to every one of them .. and I know in my heart they would do the same for me or my family... That's the kind of people we All are..
.. Mike .. you have Always made me smile and the truth is I cant remember a time when you didn't.. I heard the phrase in my head over and over today .. "Man Down" .. "Man Down" maybe thinking and wishing that it just wasn't real ..You Mr Buckles will be missed

My very deepest condolences to everyone who actually took the time to read this
