Guest Mrs M Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) It is with a broken heart that I have to tell everyone that Micky (Michael Edward) Cruise has now passed away. As his best friend, I ask for some privacy for Annie, his family and closest friends. One of the Northern Soul Scenes true Soul Men and real characters. R.I.P. my beautiful friend x Edited March 4, 2013 by Mrs M Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post Chalky Posted March 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2013 We knew it was coming but it doesn't make the news any easier to take. Micky was one of the scenes most colourful characters, it was a pleasure to have known him all these years and to call him a friend. Sleep easy mate. My sympathies and condolences to the lovely Annie, and to both families. x R.I.P. Micky 5 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Md Records Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Very difficult to take in, every time I saw him he would come bounding over with his latest selection of jokes, and then we'd talk records - but always a joy to talk to. My life is better for having known you, Mickey. Sincerest condolences to Annie and all those close to you. R.I.P.

Popular Post Iancsloft Posted March 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2013 I saw Mickie for the last time Saturday afternoon at Bolton Royal and it was heartbreaking to see him. I will always remember Mickie has a bloke so full of life so full of bonkersness a soul with a great love for Northern Soul ,over the years I've had some great laughs with him he has left me with many great memories had me in stitches laughing many many times whenever he was with Pete Lawson . I will miss the lad a lot..

Guest Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 So you've gone and left us Micky - rest assured you won't be forgotten, and you've left a legacy of a big hole in the hearts of everyone that loved you. Thinking of Annie and your family, and of course Jules and the rest of the Wiganers that were your closest friends. Give em hell, and make sure you tell everyone the wide mouthed frog joke RIP xx Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Popular Post Wrongcrowd Posted March 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2013 Micky was certainly a colourful character, there was no danger of missing him in a crowded room. A top bloke, with a real ear for the music, and so funny, whether you could understand what he was saying or not. We'll definitely miss him, and the scene will be a queiter place for the loss.

Davenpete Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Very sad news indeed (sorry about previous post - down to being called with the wrong info) - anyway someone I met when I first started going and have loved and respected ever since - will miss him greatly, though I rarely got to see him in recent times.

Popular Post Dave Thorley Posted March 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2013 'the frail man, that was a big man' Like everyone that 'The Force Of Nature' that was Michael Cruise touched. I sit here with a heavy heart this morning, even when you know it's coming, it's still hard. His humour, company and great love of soul music, always made him a joy to be with, even though his machine gun delivery would take a few moments to tune into, (Smile), and now I am smiling, he always had the ability to make you smile................ 7 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
