Not sure what to say?

I remember Mickey fighting in the amateurs. He was a tough kid with a big heart. I was there the night he beat the highly regarded Johnny Coiley for the golden gloves title. Rest in peace Mickey.

In a career that is the toughest, Mickey stayed true to the ideals of what law enforcement are all about. RIP...

Mick, You were an inspiration to so many it is impossible to really comprehend the effect you had on those around you. I always took great pride in saying that I knew you, Donna, and your sons. I did that because I felt a sense of pride in being connected to such a great group of people. Your name will mentioned amongst the great coaches, cops, and friends of the Greater Lowell Community and beyond for generations to come. Mick, you left a legacy and the world is a much better place...

Met Mike outside the Owl Diner many moons ago. He came ober to see my 57 chevy truck parked across the street. My wife Sandra and I enjoyed the one hour conversation we had with Michael about his life, our lives. I feel so lucky to have met such an interesting and kind hearted man. Donna, hope to see you at the Diner. Richie/Sandy from Billerica

Donna and family- we are saddened to hear of the passing of Mickey. I met him through my father, Willie Williams, at the Owl Diner. He was a great friend to my dad. They had boxing and the courts in common. Donna- you were so kind to us when we would visit the diner. I have such great memories of that time. Love to you and your family. I know they are chatting away in heaven.
