If any of Mike's friends/family want to share a story (maybe on the phone, by email, etc), I would gladly listen, and convey one of mine. Now there is a dog in my life, and I wish I could ask Mike a dog question or two.

Mike was my Supervisor at AIDS Care Ocean State and we grew together. He was helpful to me afterwords...
From Mike I learned the expression, "red-headed step-child"!
My warmest condolences to all his loved ones.

Deepest condolences for your loss. I met Mike when he came to visit Vin Pezzi's Kempo
class at Riverbend in Wakefield. Mike joined us numerous times. I am privileged to have met him and to know of his dedication to those who struggle with addiction. A life of discipline and service to those in need. One could not ask of more of Antone.
God' peace and love to his family and friends

I'm so sad to hear about Mike. I worked with him at Fatima Hospital and he was such a wonderful person! He helped me become a better clinician myself, and became a good buddy of mine! I will miss him. His wife and daughter Miranda are in my thoughts and prayers. -Robin
