Dad, I can't believe 5 years have gone by without you in our lives. This year was one of the toughest years planning the wedding knowing you wouldn't be there to walk me down the aisle. I love and miss you more and more with each passing day... Enjoy your precious time with Randi, and please keep a close eye on all your friends and family. I love you Dad... Until we meet again!

Mary Ann,
I am very sorry for your loss. Growing up in Wheelwright with Pete Roy and Mike were some great times. It is hard to believe they have both left us far to early. I do know when Mike started dating you he was the happiest man on earth.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Mary Ann, I just found out about Mike. Sorry for your loss. I still tell stories at work about growing up back home and I mentioned one the other day about Mike, Boo & I going on a trip to RI once. Mike was always smiling when someone talked to him and that is how I always remeber him with that big grin. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Mary Ann, Blair and Morgan,
Words cannot say how we feel about your loss of Michael. He was such a great man. We were so glad to be able to see him that one last time in Walmart. I remember times when I use to go to his parents house to hang out with Laurie, those were good times. He is now with Randi keeping watch over all of you! We will keep you all in our prayers. Take good care of your mom Theresa. Our thoughts are also with her. Love, Mike & Cheryl

Mary Ann, We go back so long it's hard not to remember a day in my life I didn't know you both. I just found out today of Mike's passing and I can't stop the tears from running down my cheek. I am so sorry for the loss you must feel. Although we didn't see each other often you were both the couple a lot of us looked up at for your commitment and dedication to one another. I am so sorry I was not there for the service, but please know my heart aches for you and the loss you have suffered. ...

I first met Mike in Parochial School, I can still remember playing Match Box cars in the sand right behind the church. What other school do you know of that would shut down the whole school and assemble all the students to watch the Red Sox playoff against the Yankees in 67 or 68 on a 19” black & white T.V. that was all snow. Puggy Diamond the janitor was a Yankees fan and all the sisters were red sox fans, especially sister Mary Teresita all 4’ of fury with a 3’ stick. So it was religion...
