So sorry! Growing up next door, all of our youth was intertwined. Hide and Seek and Kick the Can were our nightly summertime routines. All sports played in everyone´s yards. Of course, getting in trouble together and with each other were all part of the neighborhood when your literally growing up 20 feet from someone. The memories live on and the stories retold. Glad he could chase some dreams before taken too early. I guess Mike and Sammy will be representing the neighborhood and hanging out...

Sorry to hear of Mikes passing. Michael was a kind and sweet person I saw him last at our 40th class reunion. We have lost another great person from the class of "78" from Pioneer High. I will continue praying for the DeLaTorre family.

Sorry to have read of Mike´s passing. Condolences to his family. I last saw Mike at our (40th?) high school class reunion and we talked all night. I´ve known Mike since our Wines, Forsythe, Pioneer days. Even after graduation I´d see him from time to time at the gas station at the corner of Miller & Maple Rd. A gentle giant he was and we shared a lot good times together.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing We grew up as neighbors on Faye Dr, Haven't seen him in years but comfort to all of you, Diane, Mary Kay and Tommy. Thinking of you. Kerry

Mike was a classmate of mine, although I did not know him, I knew of him. So sorry to see this. Gone much too soon. Prayers now and in coming days.
