MIchael Jeffrey Ilderton,Jr.

Message from Gerri Petress

Mike and Nicole,
I am so sorry to hear about Mike Jr. Mike you know who I am, I worked for you at #2 store on north main. I knew Mike since he was a baby boy. If you need anything you let me know. I didn't know about this until a few months ago. I lost my dad the same year in March. I know about Mrs. Ilderton she was so delightful. Now if you you need anything please let me know. You were so good to me.

My heart goes out to your family. I understand your pain. My son, also named Michael, died of a heroin/fentanyl overdose on August 19, 2016. He struggled with addiction more than half his life. Please know that you are not alone in your grief and that many are praying and sending love your way.

Message from Tom Donaldson

My condolences to the Family of Michael, While I have never met Michael my heart goes out to the family. The message in the obituary is well said. My Prayers for everyone facing challenges.

Message from Grady Barbee

Mike...I was so sorry to see this in today's paper. As the parent of a son, I just can't imagine how painful this must be for you and your family. You and I have been buddies for years and I when I saw this, I went by what used to be your house to give you a hug but I don't think you live in the neighborhood any more. Please know that you are not alone even though it may feel like it today. But even people like me that you have not seen in a while, still care about you and share in your sorrow. May his Memories be Eternal

Message from Kelly Crisco Hart , Springfield MO

Dear Mike and Ikderton family,
I am so sad to learn of your son's passing. No amount of words can adequately comfort you so I ask the Lord of all comfort to be with you and give you strength, clarity, and His peace which does surpass all understanding. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

Dear Nicole and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Michael's death - such a great loss to your family. Sounded as though he was a lot like the girl I grew up with in Bethesda - you did a great job as parents. Please remember that - unfortunately no matter how hard we try, sometimes it's out of our hands. Prayers for comfort to you and your family as well as hugs and love.

My sincere condolences to the Ilderton family for your tragic loss. And my sincerely thank you for the courage to let the public know about the cause of your son's untimely passing. I lost two children last year to the scourge of drug addition and I feel that the only way we can begin to fight it is with open and frank acknowledgement of the problem. May God help you with the pain of your loss.
