I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. Please accept my sympathy and prayers during this difficult time. Mr. Mike was my neighbor for a decade at trailer camps in and near Ocean City. He helped my family care for our trailer, showed us how to have great vacation, entertained us for hours with his remarkable life story, taught us how to focus on beauty and joy, and delighted us with his creativity and zest. My children and I will never forget his kindness and I will always treasure the wooden gifts he gave to us. They sit in my garden in his memory now. I pray for peace for his family and friends. Mike was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed. Shirley Little, Annapolis, MD

Tut, I'm sorry I couldn't make it today/tonight. But please know that I'm thinking of you. A man who raised you had to be a great man. I hope to see you sometime soon.

We will miss Mr. Tozzolo so much. He became part of our family-was always so kind, had good words for everyone... a true gentle/man. it was not the same if we could not visit him during the day. several of us really wanted to be there to pay respects- the weather is not cooperating. our thoughts and prayers are with you. thank you for bringing us such a wonderful person whom we will never forget.

Mike was a great guy and neighbor for 15 years. How many 85 year olds would routinely get up on a ladder and clean out his gutters. He helped me fix a lot of things in my house and I learned alot. My kids loved him and we will miss him

Uncle Mike will be forever in our hearts. The memories are so wonderful of Colonial Beach and family gatherings. The mustard on his eggs, Aunt Rita fixing sandwiches with primarily mustard and a little ham, his laugh and the Carling Black label welcome as we pulled up to the beach house. Uncle Mike's gifts of our incredible manger,and painted wooden carvings will always be treasured.You have found your place in Heaven and now you can finally see your dear Rita along with Mom, Aunt Theresa and Aunt Doris. (the foursome). Our Prayers are with you and Mikey. I love you Uncle Mike, and I promise you, "I will never change". The last words you said to me were "I love you Mary", I will cherish that forever!

Uncle Mike, I will never forget our rides around Colonial Beach standing in the front seat with you on Sunday mornings while everyone else was at church. Just one of many great memories. I can hear Haven now with you, Aunt Rita, Aunt Theresa, and mom just laughing and talking non-stop just the way it should be (best family ever) I love you!!
