Dear Carol Anne and Howard...Chris, Tom and I are very sad to hear of Michael's passing. We have great memories of the holidays and picnics all of us cousins would spend together. And Michael was always the "mature" one since he was the oldest. I laugh at the memories but at the same time cry at your loss.

Howard and Carol, I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your brother Michael.I was one year six months older than my cousin Michael. There are so many good memories of the Mayo family Christmas Parties. One year Dad made wooden tool boxes for all of his nephews , Michael loved his. He was a kind and gentle soul.I have pictures of you two, Michael Linda and me. Perhaps you would like some. I can only imagine how much Mike's nieces and nephews will miss him.
Love to you all, Ardith Mayo Gestra

I am so sad to hear of Mike's passing. We lived next door on Grantley Road. We played as preschoolers & started kindergarten together. Our mothers are both Marjorie. It is a happy memory. My sincere condolences.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I thought often of Mike over the years and wondered what he was doing. He was my best friend when we lived on Grantly but lost touch after HS. I was shocked to hear of his passing but I will always remember him fondly.

Dear Howard and Carol,
We are so sorry to hear about Mike. I still remember a Blade photo of him as a little boy flying a kite in Mimi's backyard.
