I will remember him as one funny guy! Michael was a man who loved to have a good time and make people laugh. And for that I thank him. He was surely a hit at my wedding.

Louise, please accept our sincere condolences in the passing of Michael. I have so many fond memories of him, from the time he was a baby and throughout his life. I remember at Laura's wedding when he got up to sing, he was great. We are so sorry we couldn't make it up to NY but you were in my heart.
Love Virginia & Tony

Michael, my cousin, I can't believe you're gone. Words alone can't say how I am feeling right now. You were a great cousin and a great friend. We grew up together on Long Island. Seems like every Sunday we were at Mammys house, ALL of us! Now go to heaven and take care of all the ones from our family who are there. You will be greatly missed. Louise, I am so sorry Michael has left us. Be proud that he brought Love and laughter into your life, as well as the childrens' lives.
I last seen Michael a few years ago at a Wedding and we talked about all the great times we had growing up. I have to end this message now because my eyes are watering up. I love you Michael and I will miss you. Till the time comes when we meet again my cousin .........
