Not sure what to say?

I grew up with the Sweeney's and went to grade school and high school with them. What a great family! I'll never forget Mike and all the brothers on Commonwealth Ave. Shamrocks in the sky forever.

Sally, Ryan, Nolan, Corey and Brenna - Nelson and I saw with dismay that your beloved Mike has died. We have many memories of your watching our Mark, and I sitting for all of your children, but mostly Corey and Brenna. It's been years since we've seen you, probably since you left Madison, but your whole family remains in our hearts and minds, and your kindness to a new mother will never be forgotten. Our Mark is now a 45 year old father of 3 - amazing. Nelson and I send our heartfelt...

Sally, We were so sorry to hear about Mike. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Tom and Mary Donovan

Sally, so sorry to hear this sad news for you and his family. Mary Donovan sent link to me for which I'm thankful.

It has been a long time since Waban Hill, but I still do remember the good times we had and your relationship with Lynne, who left this world four years ago. Take care. -Neil

Really sorry to learn about Mike. Only met him a couple of times but what a nice person as are his entire family. Mike and Barb Teff

Patients we shared loved him and had the highest respect for him. I valued opportunities to talk with him because of his insightfulness, and because we always got to meaningful places in our conversations. I hope that, amidst the stresses and sadness of this time, everyone in the family may experience a...

Whoever wrote the obituary did a masterful job of summing up Mike life, and the comment of grace and dignity perfectly describes his demeanor. Mike was a High school hero of mine, and he always will be. God bless Mike and his family.

Mike served in the Peace Corps in Ecuador in addition his many other accomplishments. Susan Schneider
