Dear Mike and Family

Whether it was the South Shore Water Frolics or Polka music at a church festival your mother was always a delight to see. I will always have very fond memories of her.

Uncle Rob, Mike, Matt & Randy:
Even though I cannot be in attendance at her memorial, I extend my condolences to you all & hold in my heart memories of Aunt Mary's zaney humor & her delightful quirkiness. Fondly,

Coincidence?...When I was informed of Mary's passing I had just heard the annoucement that Mannheim Steamroller was going to perform in Milwaukee again. My thoughts went immediately to sharing that wonderful experience with Mary, Mike & others, a few years back, at the Bradley Center. Their songs will have even more meaning to me now...Our deepest sympathy to the Middlemas Family.

Dear Mike and family,

I just read about your mom's death while viewing the online obituaries. Josie and I are out of state and unfortunately will not be able to attend services to offer our condolences in person.

I remember, with great joy, visiting your home and spending time with your mom. Rest assured that Mary Margaret, and your entire family, will be in our thoughts and prayers. God bless.
