RIP, Mike. Very sad. I didn’t know you personally, but I lurked this place long enough, to know enough.
-
I’m so gutted Mike was amazing and had the smoothest voice I’d ever heard. He even did the same job as me passed away on my 50 birthday I’m so sad. He was the goat of the forum and I miss him.

I'm lost for words. absolutely heartbreaking. RIP Mike 'Filthy'
-
Never spoke to him directly but read many of his posts over the months–sad to hear of his passing.
-
I didn’t get the chance to meet @Filthy in person, or interact much with him in these pages in my brief time here, but he was a legend on the forum and I can tell from what I read that he touched a lot of people. A sad day when such a good hearted person passes. Rest in peace, and in your denim, Mike.
My heartfelt commiserations to his friends and family.

I spent many hours this weekend reading heartfelt messages to Filthy and reading his posts throughout the years.
Both confirm he was a very special human being. RIP. -
I am very sorry to read this. I didn't know Mike, although I've read many of his posts. I don't think we shared much, but we both were cat lovers.
I remember a thread he posted where he did indigo dyeing. I had had that same idea in the back of my mind and seeing his thread pushed me to do the same. I ended up spending a day or so dyeing a few tee shirts with my son. It was a good time, a special shared moment. I'm happy to say Mike had a small part in it.

Wow, so sad to hear this. Filthy’s posts were incredibly helpful for me when first learning about Iron Heart. He was a very kind person I could tell. He will be missed!

Go well Filthy

Filthy, you are an IH legend (regardless of which forum iteration is in place) and you will be missed by all.
We only interacted a couple of times, but I gained a great deal of knowledge by reading your posts & comments. Your passion & generosity are an inspiration to me. I wish I had gotten to know you better, but I want you to know that you are loved and appreciated.
We share much—a given name, a birth year, stomping grounds (roughly), a checkered past. I’m a little bit Filthy. Godspeed.

Rest in power my brother

If it is ok with the other members I would like gift both of the pairs of jeans that I have for sale here to another forum member in honor of Filthy. He was well know to gift things to other members and I can’t think of a better way to honor him! He really was a kind generous person. Please just post a memory of filthy here so we can all share it and send me a DM with your address and which ones fit you and I’ll get them to ya. I think he would like that

I’m so sad to hear that Mike has passed on from this consciousness. I hope he’s enjoying wherever he is now.
Mike was the best friend I never met. And I regret not being able to meet him in person! He was such an amazing and gracious human being!
We texted and voice texted more than we talked on the forum and all the IH that I ever bought for my dad came from Mike. I’ve been thinking about him a lot lately and was just getting ready to send him a care package. Despite his “troubled soul” I always found him in mostly good spirits and always ended our conversations feeling better. I’m so happy that I bought his 822’s when I did. They will always remind me of him.I was very proudly influenced by

It is 100% more than OK and a lovely gesture.

I am trying to get a few of Mikes pieces here so that we can run auction them off and donate the proceeds to The American Heart Association, his family's charity of choice.
One forum member has already offered out of the blue to send me a pair of jeans Mike gifted to him, I'm going to see what else I can rustle up.

Just logged on and read the news, this hit me in the stomach hard.
I never really talked to Mike even though I must have read over a hundred of his posts. He was one of the pillars of this forum, that's for sure. Hope he is in a better place and my thoughts go out to his family and friends.
RIP brother
