Mike was always a good friend and pal to me. I am so glad that he was reconciled to the Catholic Church before passing. He always had a joke, a good happy outlook, and a big heart. He spoke about his love for his family often in our conversations and was proud of each and every one of his children. His love for Debbie was always there. Never once when I saw him did he forget to ask me to 'give his best and say hello' to my wife. He was a man's man and he left this life much too soon. I will continue with the prayers I told him I would say for him on the last time we spoke. Aloha Michael and God's Love be with you.
