So sorry to read about Mike's passing-- He was always the hit of the parties at the Maratzi meetings and we will always remember him as a dear friend---haven't seen him in years but he will always be in my memories. My sympathies to his family and friends. We share in your sadness.

We were so sorry to hear about our dear "Cousin Mikie"....he was truly "one-of-a-kind" - played the piano like a maestro - life of the party - friend to many. We have so many happy and fond memories. He'll have a special place in my heart!

My father, Joe, always enjoyed his special relationship with Uncle Mike. I'll never forget when I was 8 years old, and he got me wrestling tickets and a picture of my favorite wrestler who I had a big crush on. I thought it was the nicest thing anyone ever did for me. I remember Uncle Mike and my dad always laughing and having fun together. Having lost my father last year, and still missing him terribly, I can't say enough how sorry I am for your loss.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Mike's passing. I didn't know him as well as my mother, Sophie, but the few interactions I've had with him have left an impression. When my Grandmother, Sarah (Hajigus), passed away, I remember Uncle Mike at the hoki jash shuffling around in shoes many sizes too big. My Aunt Alice (Bazarian) said, "Mike, what's with the shoes?" And he said, "I'm claustrophobic!" We've been retelling that story ever since. My thoughts are with you.

Terry and Janelle: I am so sorry to hear about Mike. I know that you have been together a long time and it must be very hard for you all. Please let me know if there is anything that I can do for you. I love you. Your sister, Donna
