Michael M. Romano Sr.

Dad - tomorrow is your birthday and Sunday is Father's Day - for the 6th time we will celebrate you without your hugs, without your laughter , and without your cooking. I am jealous of all those lucky angels that get to eat your cooking and feel your hugs.

I can't explain it but I know you are not far away. I hear you cheering at the kids events. I feel your strength when I am down. I tell the kids "if PaPa was here he would say..." All the time. They miss you so much - and you...

It doesn't seem possible for them both to be gone this close together. In a better place now I hope they know that their significance to us here will never change. As far back as I can remember I thought everyone's father worked for the fire department, told bad jokes and wore white undershirts with Dickies. I realize now that I was wrong. It was only our fathers. We were lucky. I remember thinking as a child if anything ever happened to my mom and dad, Aunt Cathi and Uncle Mike would...

Dear Mike,
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. I have so many memories of him while growing up on Rooney... My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

To the Romano Family,
Our deepest sympathy..

Our sincerest sympathies to all of you on the death of Michael.

Dear Maryann

I am so sorry for the loss of your brother, Michael. I was very shocked to learn of his passing when I returned home yesterday. You know I would have been there with you every step of the way. My heart goes out to you and your family. But I know memories of Michael and your childhood days together will comfort you.

God bless you.

Dear Mary Ann and family:

I was away and just returned late last night. I was shocked when I heard of Michael’s passing. My deepest sympathy and heartfelt sorrow goes out to you and your family during these very difficult times. You have so many good memories of him to sustain you. The two of you shared a special big brother little sis bond when you were young. I remember him teasing you unmercifully or playing the big brother protector and you secretly loving every moment of it....

Maryann and Bob Cady and the Romano Family,
We were so sorry to hear of the untimely passing of Mike. It is a great loss for a son, husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, friend, and exceptional professional man.
He will be missed by his immediate family as well as his many extended families. He left quite an impression on everyone he ever met, one everyone can be very proud of. His legacy will live on for generations due to the tasks he accomplished during his lifetime.
