Not sure what to say?

I have lots of memories of Michael from when we were kids who lived around the corner from each other in Groton in the late '60's and early '70's. I could literally write a book about the many, many activities we shared (including the mischievous ones!) during a very different, simpler time. I remember Michael's parents. I remember Matthew, who shared many of our activities as well.. Mr. Chiappone was in the MDA and worked the Boards at Electric Boat for years. Mrs. Chiappone was a good...

Many great memories from all the times at oxoboxo R I P

My buddy Chippie. Worked with him 40yrs plus. Many laughs. Will be deeply missed.
My condolences to the family.

Mike, I will miss you. The times at the lake with your Mom&Dad, seeing who could flip each other off the raft and be king of the hill. the the time we went fishing off Waterford beach and almost losing the boat when we got snagged on a lobster-pot line, driving in your '70 Torino with the 429SCJ, all those times were great. I don't think I ever laughed so much. God Bless you Mike and your whole family. Please accept my deepest condolences.

Sorry to hear . Knew both Matt and Mike from years living in Groton . My sincere condolences to the family

Am sorry about that. I worked with his father at Electric Boat.

I lived across the street from the Chiappones only until I was four years old, but our families remained lifelong friends. I always had a soft spot in my heart for Michael, Matthew and their parents, who were great people. I wish you peace, Michael. ❤

Sorry to hear of the passing of my cousin

Rest in Peace
