Not sure what to say?

Thankful for your love and the companionship you and my parents had with you. You have an amazing daughter. Please keep your hands upon her. Rest in Peace.

So happy to read Josie´s message about Michael, and praying with him. Michael was my Dad´s cousin, a real gentleman. So sorry to hear about his passing, but happy to know I will see him again in heaven. Thank you Josie for praying with Michael and sharing the faith with him. I remember Michael and his brother and sister when they came to Utica for my grandmother Laura´s funeral in 1963.

I just found out that Michael passed away. :-( I used to look after Laura when they lived in Greece ny I remember Mike showing me his photo albums from when he lived in Florida and it was such a nice time I loved that he thought enough of me to go through his photo albums I remember it was downstairs and I had to go get it for him. He reminded me of Charlton Heston. What a nice man and a beautiful wife Laura. I think of both of them from time to time I made good friends. We used to talk...

Uncle Mike, rest in peace. Remembering your love for us.

My heart goes out to one and all in your loss. I shall miss Michael very much. I enjoyed his visits to our office and I so enjoyed all the stories about family and Florida. Michael was a very sweet man. He was very special to me. My sweet Laura my thoughts are with you everyday. Linda and Louis I am very sorry for your loss. God bless you all. Love, Kathy ward (Genesee Valley Podiatry)
