I went to high school with Mike and only recently began corresponding with him through the internet.
It is my loss to not to have been reaquainted with him sooner.
He shared the love and happiness he had for his family and girlfriend without reserve.
He expressed with pride the relationship he had with his son and the sadness of the passing of his step-dad (who was a great man in his life).
May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. With warm regards, Kim Weston (Acton-Boxboro HS)

I just want to start by saying thank you to every one for all the support, i guess DAD was well liked by more people than i thought. He was a great man, a pack rat but still a great man. The thing i think i am going to miss the most is the nightly phone call when i was driving to or from Vanessa's house. We deffinatly had alot of laughs, i think i was the only kid growing up that could say "me and my DAD got in trouble this weekend", when every one was saying my dad grounded me, some of you probably know some of the stories. But once again thank you all for the sapport DAD will be greatly missed by ALL. Any one who would like to keep in touch please feel free to contact me.

I will miss Mike who was my boyfriend. He has brought alot to my life as I have brought so much into his. We shared so many good times and life experiences that I had never done before.I am happy of the times we went riding on the four wheeler. And acting like teenages in love and parking if we wernt close to home lol.He was the man that was going to be with me forever and always that was our saying between us. I am so greatful for the last time we were together before his passing and the time after his passing. He was not only my boyfriend but we referred to eachother as husband and wife. He was my bestfriend and soulmate and the day he died a piece of me died. The love we shared was unconditional and will be till the time I pass on.He is no longer in pain and that's what gets me through this greiving process and someday we will be together again in the heavens above. Mike you called me your baby girl and forever I will be your girl. The love between us will always be there and no one can ever take that away from us. I know your watching over me and as I live each day down here I will continue to make you proud. I miss my everyday good morning texts, and waking you up in the morning but you always reminded me of how I would forget our anniversary month and I just want to say happy anniversary now, forever and always.And our song "How do I live" is a song that reminds me that something now that is reality, how do I live without you, well time can only tell. I love you babe,hon, and baby.Thanks again for all that you have giving to me and thank you for the times you spent with my daughter. You were wonderful to both of us.I love you Mike forever and always!I will continue to live my life each and everyday as you were still here.Because right now I cannot deal with the thought you are gone physically. i love you baby.

You'll be missed greatly, Uncle Mike. Thanks for all you've done for Gram & Gramp and all the good times we had together. When I look back on those times, I smile, laugh and shake my head at some of the things we did. Thanks for everything.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
