I am sorry I did not know Mike better in spite of the fact he was in my wedding party! I do know he will be welcomed into the loving arms of his beloved family and his children will know how much he was loved by his friends. God speed Mike!

Dear Cousins,
My sympathies to you all. Uncle Mike was a man of true kindness and gentleness. Ever since I was a little girl, I was always in awe of his physical presence and his warmth. I will also remember him as the big brother who watched over my mother on their voyage to America. I am so grateful that I saw him on Sunday and received a great hug from him. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you grieve for your dear father.
Love,
Ann

To Mike's children: So sorry to hear about your dad. He was truly a credit to dear old Ireland; always so cheerful and easy going. I have such fond memories of talking & laughing with him, enjoying his company at every Seidenkranz family gathering. --Your uncle.

Dear family of Mike, My dad, George Nash, worked with Mike at the Zinsmaster Baking Co and they became friends for many years. I remember tagging along with my dad to visit with Mike and I was so facinated by his irish talk and his love for horses.
My condolences go out to the entire family of this gentle well loved man. May God hold him in the palm of his hand forever. Marianne (Nash) Rossel

My sincere condolences to Mikes family and friends. Mike was such a wonderful man. He was a good friend of my father, George Nash who also retired from Metz (Zinsmaster Bakery). They were best of friends, and shared their Irish Heritage. May he rest in peace now with his loved ones that went before him.

Dear cousins,

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved dad. You have my condolences. Knowing that Uncle Mike would go down and spend the day with his boys at their business, I remember thinking what a close family they must be, and that he must be more than just their dad, he was also their friend.

The mention of our dad was touching. Thank you for that. Our dad certainly loved his extended Irish family.

I'm sorry I can't be there to personally express...
