Not sure what to say?

Dot, So sorry to hear of Mike’s passing. We share many fun memories of our Irish heritage together.
Please, Express, my sympathy to his sisters and the rest of your family.
May Mike rest in the peace of Christ.

Mike and I met years ago when we both signed up for tap dancing classes at a dance studio located in Fairview Park. Several priest friends of mine also signed up for the classes. Fred Astaire's we were not, but we had a lot of fun. Mike & I quickly discovered that we were both Cathedral Latin & John Carroll grads. Mike and I eventually lost track of each other. I was very sad to see Mike's death notice in The Plain Dealer. Rest in Eternal Peace, Mike.

We met Michael at many of the St Patrick’s Day get together at Kay and Frank Leneghans home. He was always so genuine and friendly, and loved talking about photography. So very sorry for your loss.

Dear O'Donnells, It has been my pleasure working with you and getting to know you over the past few months. Mike was dearly loved by many, and will be missed. I can't help but think he would be amused seeing himself in the "Irish sports pages" Much love, Joan Meyer (speech therapist)
