Benita and Sheila,
I am so sorry for Mike's passing, the loss of another great Irishman. Even though we know he is in a better place, we will all miss him terribly. Our lives have been entwined with yours for so long that it just seems like one very large extended Irish Family. We share in your grief and sadness but know he had a huge "welcoming committee" on the other side who have greeted him with a huge party. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers now and always.

Much love,

Geraldine Browne

Mike has been in my life since I was a small boy. Many mornings "sharing" breakfast with Mike and my father are some of my fondest memories. Words cannot express how much he will be missed.
