Not sure what to say?

Just received the sad news of Mike's passing. My condolences to all of Mike's family and friends that are grieving.

So sorry to read of your passing. I always enjoyed being with you and Mike Logue.

I went to St. Bartholomew & WTHS with Mike but a year behind him. I remember his parents, brothers & sister. He was a very talented basketball player at St. Bartholomew & was always friendly & willing to help in any way in his formative younger life.

My deepest sympathy to his entire family. May he rest in peace.
