He was a very kind person. Always holding the door for me at Sunnybrook while having trays in his hands. He'd go out of his way to help, and you wouldn't even ask. Genuinely a positive, kind soul. May your soul rest in eternal peace.

There hasn’t been a day in the last two weeks that I haven’t had a dream about you. But in every dream I have you’re happy and smiling. I’ll never forget when my mom was in the hospital at Sunnybrook. You asked me her room number and sent her the best food everyday of her stay there. My mom always loved you for that. May you both Rest In Peace.

حبيبي مايكل معنديش كلام أقوله غير انى اقول لك مبروك عليك السماء انا عارفه ومتأكده انك فى مكان افضل مع المسيح فهنيئا لك الفردوس
صحيح سفرك كان سريع جدا
بطريقه صدمت الكل لكن عزائنا الوحيد انك فى السماء صلى من أجل بابا وماما ومارك وكريستينا ومن اجلنا كلنا

I used to meet Michael often on the hallways pulling the food card. We just say Hi, Have a Good day, etc. He always have a great smile. He was one of the most polite people I have met in the hospital.
I did not know his name till now. Michael, I send you light.
I give my condolences to his family and friends.

My deepest Condolences to the Girgis family.
Michael was my best friend. We had many conversations on religion and life. He has an opened heart to everything, he was always questioning why and what’s the purpose. The last time I saw Michael, I teased him and said you are getting old. His reply was no never naaada. I miss you my friend.

May you rest in peace.

Michael, we miss you. You touched so many people at all the Sunnybrook sites. Your thirst for knowledge, your drive for perfection, your overall performance, your ability to listen to others using sound logic and compassion, your natural let me help attitude made you unique. You managed to support others while maintaining your own privacy boundaries with your every day contagious smile.
You will always be remembered.

Your smile and your positive energy will always linger.
You always meant so very much and always will do. Those special memories will always bring a smile.
You were the first one to always tell me that life is beautiful and not to let anything stop us from living.
Your life was a blessing, your memory is a treasure.
We will always remember your positivity and your warm driven spirit.
Rest well and sleep in heavenly peace.

Michael,
My heart aches knowing you're not here with us on earth. You had such a genuine soul, and infectious smile. You had a way of making others feel inspired by your actions and words. Your daily check- ins, our deep conversations on life and our parents didn't go unnoticed. Though I left for awhile, you always made it a point to ask around to see if I was good, if I was "behaving" There was never a time you never had time for me. When life got hard- you had a way of comforting me. One thing you always mentioned was your "purpose in life is to make sure your parents, siblings, nieces and nephews were good. To make sure everyone was taken care of". I am sure they all felt that. I am so blessed and thankful our mothers connected us. You were my work bestie. The younger brother I always aspired to have.
Your work ethic is one that I strived to have. Grind hard, rest later.
My bestie, I can go on forever. But know that I will always miss you. Love you forever my brother.
To the Girgis family,
Know that I will continue to pray for all of you and Michael's sweet soul. May you be comforted by all the memories and laughter you all have shared with Michael. I pray that God will continue to bless you and give you strength during this difficult time. May Michael rest in eternal peace.
We love you all.

Michael,
Your genuine nature and the warmth of your spirit have left a permanent mark on our hearts. The news of your passing has been a profound shock, leaving a void that words struggle to fill. Your laughter, kindness, and unique way of looking at the world enriched not only my life but the lives of everyone fortunate enough to cross your path.
In moments of reflection, I find myself returning to conversations we shared, each one a testament to the wonderful person you were.
As we navigate this world without your physical presence, we carry with us the lessons you've taught by example. Your legacy of generosity, kindness, authenticity, hard work and commitment continues to guide us.
Though your departure leaves an unfillable space, we are forever grateful for the time we had, and hold onto the belief that your spirit remains with us, guiding, comforting, and encouraging us in every step we take.
Rest in peace, Michael. Your memory will be forever in our hearts.❤️

There’s a lot of things I wanna say about Mike. He was a great man, a good friend, a good coworker, but most of all as a brother that I never had; and there were days where I was upset when he saw me in the hallway and asked me yo, you good? I said yeah I’m good. Are you sure? Mike had a way of telling me don’t let that bring you down; the only thing you have to worry about is yourself and your work, don’t worry about anyone else and what they think about you . When we went out with all the guys from Work, we all became brothers!!!! Mike we be truly miss miss brother

I just saw Michael couple weeks ago and I told him you're away again as he's darker than usual and he said yes with smile. Michael is such a beautiful soul, he even accompany me when I was looking for a house. He's very kind and willing to help, that's his personality very friendly to everybody. Michael is a very good friend. He is full of life, he's a guy who lives his life. You're always in our heart forever Mike. Rest in peace Michael.

I want to express my sincerest to you. As one of the Union Reps from SEIU I had the pleasure of working with Michael in his capacity as a Steward at Sunnybrook. It was a joy to know him and he always brought light and insight to the conversations that we had. I know that he will be missed by many staff at the hospital as I have heard many stories about him taking the time to speak with his coworkers as he travelled to units all over the hospital making deliveries.

Michael was such an Incredible young man. He always had these interesting conversations that made you think. Just last week he asked me why do I always laugh and smile when I see him. That was the effect he had on us. His gestures and comments always brightened my day. I will forever remember his parting words......"The only relationship that matters is the one with you and the King!" Rest assured that He is definitely with God and his Angels.

I know Mikey as the eldest son of my friend Susan. I only ever saw him happy, smiling, laughing and joking. He loved making his mother laugh and she was so proud of her son. He loved acting silly in the hallways of the hospital as he went floor by floor chatting with pretty much everyone he ran into. The loss of Mikey will be felt all around. His contagious smile will always be remembered fondly. That’s not something that will ever be forgotten.

I am one of the SEIU Chief stewards at Sunnybrook who had the pleasure to meet and chat with Michael many long hours.
He truely was a genuinely great person and feel blessed if you had the honour to be in his presence. He took so much pride in his work and life accomplishment. He will be truly missed by the team at Sunnybrook. I am shocked, sad and lost for words as we say goodbye to an amazing person that has left us way to soon. I pray for his family to get through this difficult time and send my deepest condolences to his family who are suffering such a huge loss. I will always carry his memories in my heart.

Relocating to Canada to complete my tertiary education wasn’t an easy transition. The Girgis family, more specifically Michael Girgis, made the transition easier. We met at Seneca College on the first day of school. On that day a brotherhood was formed. One that will last a lifetime.
