Not sure what to say?

It’s been 9 years since Michael passed but when I got the email on the anniversary of this I just wanted to write again and say Michael was such a great friend to me thru school and LIYC in Babylon - I pray that you all are doing well and the whole Nicholas family loved him. Plus we had our Jets bond!

dear lynn, megene and i are so sad to hear about michael.we both knew him at loyola rome and we loved him. we wanted to share a story with you. michael arranged two major trips for kids at the school, and the travel agent gave him a free stay at a resort in heraclean greece on the island of crete. michael asked megene and i to meet him there. the resort wasn't exactly finished and a lot of the staff were in training. we all shared one room and we had the same greek waiter in the morning for...

I was so sorry to hear of Michael's death. I knew Michael back in elementary school and summers at the LIYC on Long Island - swimming, sailing lessons, bridge. Michael was the ring leader of the gang. Just last night I was speaking of him with another friend from elementary school - Michael will always be remembered for a great kindness after my father died. I kept meaning to contact him, but things always interfered. My prayers are with you.

To The Family:

Please accept my deepest sympathy on your loss. I attended Loyola of Rome with Mike and he will always be remembered fondly.

I will always credit Michael as the person who gave me my shot in the agency business 30 years ago. He arrived on the Dartmouth campus on a recruiting trip and essentially took over the lunch hall with his signature showmanship, convincing all of us MBA types to bag brand management and come to the agency side. Six months later, I began my career at Dancer Fitzgerald Sample in NYC. My thanks and gratefulness go out to Michael and the Keeshan family.

Dear Lynn, Britton, and Connor,
I was so saddened to hear about Michael's sudden passing. We will all miss his quick wit; his undying passion for his precious Mets and Jets; and his well thought out opinions on a myriad of topics. The latter so often offered without much prodding.
It was always a delight to be in his presence.
We will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lynn, Britton, Connor:

I am so sorry for your loss. As a former DFSer and colleague of Michael's, I vividly remember meetings where he would toss out hysterically funny one-liners, followed by long, elegantly flowing sentences filled with remarkably astute strategic insights.

Then, after we had both left Mother Saatchi, and would run into each other at annual ANA conferences, we'd share observations at the breaks, and he'd always make a point of introducing me to...

We are so saddened by your loss. We were looking forward to seeing all of you when we moved. May you find comfort in family and friends. God Bless.

blessings to all the Keeshans. my heart breaks for your loss , and celebrates the life of a man who touched so many of us. may your grief be softened by the comfort you receive in this time. much love from one of the childhood friends whose life he graced.
