Not sure what to say?

Mike may you Rest In Peace. I will miss your warm greeting. You always asked about my son Keith, if he was not joining me.
You were a truly wonderful man and one of the best chefs in the state of RI.

Mike was a man of very few words. Mike's will never be the same. So many memories at Mike's. RIP Mike and thank you for the place of memories and great meals. Angelo's graduation party there was so great because of your menu , hard work and caring about Angelo. Angelo is in Florida this week so he was unable to attend services. So Sad.

A beautiful and generous man; a veritable "Rock Star" when it came to cooking. His creamy polenta was legendary. The recipe for it is in the Al Forno Cookbook. His fried squid was the best around. He will be sorely missed. It was a pleasure to call him a friend. His life was a blessing. We are thankful for his God given talents, which he used to make his friends and customers happy. Family celebrations and friends getting together were better because the food that he prepared was so good....

Thank you for giving me the chance to meet and enjoy Uncle Mike's company. His kindness and generosity shown to Joseph and I was endless. I remember he was a Man of few words but those few words, be it wisdom or wit were profound. He always made me laugh!! ❤. RIP Uncle Mike.

You were the most generous uncle in the world. You helped your family, church, and community. The family has been blessed with great Italian cooks and you were one of the best. We will miss you a lot.
