When someone you care about is grieving, it's hard to find the right words. There is no words to ease the pain. I am so sorry to hear of this news. I grew up with this family and was treated like family. Aunt Pat, Sharyn, Mike I am so sorry for your lost. I wish i could take away your pain. I just heard this horrible news and my heart is broken. Uncle Mike was a great man and always made everyone laugh. This man will be dearly missed. I send my condolences to the family.

To the McCarthy family, may God guide you all in this time of sadness.Take joy in the life that he had lived. My name is Ed Edler and attended high school with Mike. Mike and I were such great scholars that he and I were assigned to wax the convent floors in our senior year during homeroom and religion class on Fridays. He was a wonderful guy and had a great sense of humor.

Patty and Family, I was very sad to hear of Mike's passing we were classmates from grades 1 thru 5 at St. Nicks. Many years later in 1972 Mike, myself, Jack Maraziti,& Billy Garrison were the last 4 guys to be assigned to the old Motorcycle & Mounted Squad the four of us trained together. I'll always remember him as a great guy and a good friend. My prays are with you.

Dear Patty and family:
Knowing and being with Mike was like having someone who enjoyed seeing others happy and smiling. His ability to stay positive and strong rubbed off on all who knew him. I'll miss him, butI'll remember him as well forever more.
God Bless all the McCarthy Family members, and believe that my brother Don and Mike are joined in friendship again, and I can almost hear the familiar, "Hi neighbor" as Don greets Mike.

I will never forget brother Mike. I never tired of his stories and his general good nature. I loved riding our Harleys together and always looked forward to seeing him & Patty at our meeting spot on Sunday rides.
Condolences to Patty & Mike's family members and love from my family!
Mike was always nice to my Mom when she came for breakfast and my wife Brea will never forget walking down the aisle arm & arm with Mike as he gave her away at our Wedding!
