Not sure what to say?

Michael you we're a wonderful, loving caring man.
I was glad I had the chance to love you and for you to love me.
Also we both loved fast cars!
My brother in law and you can build another Cam Am in heaven.
Rest In Peace baby.
Love you Always ❤

Michael Michael motorcyle, It has been a year since you left us, Miss your phone calls, your crazy dogs and their loud toys, the fun stories and whose doing what.... It wasn't easy saying goodbye forever, but everyday i remember the great brother you were to me and i cherish all my memories. You are with all our dearly departed family and that gives me peace. God Bless you, Elizabeth

SO SORRY TO SEE YOU GO. BET YOU WERE WATCHING WOODWARD AVE FROM ABOVE, THIS PAST WEEKEND. RIP, YOU WILL BE MISSED.

Mike- I just sent you a text-Hi Mike it's your neighbor Latees haven't seen you in a little while and was just checking on you I hope you're on a much needed vacation. Hope all is well Latees it never crossed my mind that you passed away. My condolences to the Genna family. I will miss seeing you wash your car and taking such good care of your yard you will be truly be missed. My prayers are with your family. The Morris family.

Mike my heart is broken as is your family and friends you were one of the nicest people i have ever met and grew up with Rest in peace my friend and watch your beautiful daughter grow up into a beautiful and wonderful woman missing her dad the whole time but i know you will always be on her shoulder keeping her safe ❤

Ever smiling and gone too soon. A memorable soul who managed to encourage me through some pretty tough times with upbeat texts from across the miles. A "footprint" was left with all who knew him. Rest well my friend... you earned your wings!

I really dont have words for how sweet and kind Mike Genna was. I only had the pleasure of knowing him for about four months, but in that time span, I came away with so much admiration and respect fir him. I will always remember him and what he stood for. He will be greatly missed and I am sure He is at peace now with Jesus.

As a coworker and friend, I was always surprised how cheerful and respectful Mike was to work with. He loved people by taking time with them, laughing at a new joke, being with is dogs and driving fast cars (sometimes on two wheels leaving work). He was missed the moment we found out. My deepest sympathy and prayers to his family.

Beginning in 1988, I knew Mike as a great co-worker...one of the greats of Crusader! I was fortunate to bring Mike down to NC for the Ilmor Marine startup where his versatility was vital to our successful launch and he formed the service department for the company in short order. Now in 2018, as he has taken the "Stairway to Heaven", I can say I knew him as one of my dearest friends.
