INDEPENDENCE DAY HASN'T BEEN THE SAME SINCE THE HEALEY'S STOPPED VISITING. MY SYMPATHIES TO BARBARA, DANIEL, KEVIN, SEAN AND KAITLIN AND CUSHA AND BOB (TEETH IN THE LAKE) AND THE REST OF THE EXTENDED FAMILY. ALWAYS GOOD TIMES WHEN MIKE WAS AROUND, AND IN THE EARLY DAYS, MIKE WAS AROUND IN THE SUMMER, WHAT FUN. I HAVE MEMORIES.

None of my memories of growing up in North Easton don't include one or more of the Healey's in it, and nobody had a greater smile and was happier than Mike. We had a lot of fun together and as I age I can think back right now and start laughing any time I want to. Thanks for that Mike, and I see by what I read above you had a good life. You deserved it, and as you were then, you obviously continued to be a "good guy". Heaven is a happier place with you up there. God Bless you and your family.

Words can not adequately express the sadness I felt when I was informed of Mikes passing. A flood of great memories came to the forefront. Memories of walking past the Healey homestead on Mechanic Street time after time and Mike yelling out to me as a youngster. Ings kitchen. The old neighborhood. I was fortunate to work with Mike later in life at the high school.
He will always have a trace upon my memory. The best.

Thoughts with Barb and the kids...I'll always remember Luby and the way his conversations always seem to have a laugh from him most the time. Drove me to the motorcycle races to ride because I was not old enough to drive yet. We grew up together in Easton, MA and continued on to this day. Heard from Mike recently about another friend that was in awful accident and died along with two others. God Speed and RIP buddy
