“He wasn’t only an outstanding broadcaster… but a dear friend. In the ‘80s and ‘90s he was a radio disk jockey (DJ) of a popular radio station 93.9 WKC. Baby Michael was his handle then and he always supported me to the max as he would help promote my shows. We had some real good talks on life as we bounced off our thoughts on our common health condition,” said Gary.

“Your voice, style and personality; these and so much more will be missed Mike. Can’t help but smile imagining how Jesus may’ve affectionately welcomed you home gently saying ‘Sir Mike Enriquez…PASOK.’ Mula sa isang tunay na Kapamilya sa isang tunay na Kapuso …. love you bro,” he added.

“Oh my. Bro Mike, you were an amazing human being and so helpful in countless ways,” wrote Ogie. “During the beginning of my career when you were a DJ in KC and as the manager of the station who made sure that OPM will be in the airwaves. Until you became the star of the GMA news broadcast, you never ceased to ask if you could help in anyway. You always had that relentless ‘Man For Others’ spirit that we took to heart from our days in La Salle.”
