Not sure what to say?

What a shock! That's the VFW, we all live so far apart. Dick and I loved Mike, as if he was a member of our family. Now he and Dick (and the rest) can have some fun in Heaven. My heart goes out to you all. We have lost a really great guy. With my love and God's blessings, always. Alice Welch, PP Dist 3 Aux VFW

Mary, Todd and the rest of the family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of this wonderful man. I had recently heard he was in the hospital and had intended to visit him. I'm so sad now that I missed that opportunity. I have wonderful memories of Mike. He was one-of-a-kind.

my heart goes out to the family,Mike was a wonderful man. i knew him when i was young.we lived right by agway when he worked there and later on when i was a bartender at bernies. he was always happy and would do anything for anybody.rip Mike.

Mike, and family,
