A Very personal loss for me and my family. My best friend and colleague for over 50 yrs. Our many gatherings on Strimple, Sweeting, Fenway and DeSantis will be cherished forever.
Mike's Irish wit, hearty laugh and genuine concern for others were his trademarks and will be truly missed.
To his great family, beloved wife Jean, Jim and Joe, Margaret, Tim and Ellen, my sincere sympathy to all your families.
"May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be at your back." Peace my friend.

I had Mr. Flaherty at St. Matthias and at DeSales.
What a wonderful, kind man he was. I will always remember his laugh. In 7th grade he required us to memorize the US Presidents in order. I can still do it! My heartfelt condolences to the family. I know he is resting in peace.
