Mike was a good friend and the Godfather of my daughter. Although the years separated us he was always a part of our family's history. Fine and loving memories of Uncle Face.

We remember Mike and his family from a family holiday party years ago and what a wonderful person he was. His sisters, Myra & Naomi, have both been family to us for years as we share in their tears. Our prayers and thoughts are with Mike's wife and your entire family as the loss of a close one is always painful.

O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful, give to your servant departed the full remission of his sins that Mike may obtain the pardon he has always desired. You, who live and reign forever and ever. Amen. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon him. Amen.
