Not sure what to say?

It has been many years since I've seen Mike & Rita. We all graduated from McCollum together, seems like we would only see each other during funerals. Time, families, jobs, took us in different directions. Mike will rest in peace. Rita, I'm so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. God be with the both of you.

I know that nothing I say will take your pain away. I have known the Farrell family for over 30 years. We lived in the same neighborhood for a few years and when I moved to my new home I never dreamed that they would buy the house across the street a few years later. In 2009 my husband was dying of cancer at home with hospice. The last day of his life, Mike came over to see him, hold his hand, and talk to him. It was then that my husband passed away. There will always be a special place in my...

I met Mr Farrell through his sister Ms. Patricia Itturalde, he was a fun loving intelligence kind of man may he rest in peace and watch over his love ones he will be truly missed my deepest condolences

I will miss you Uncle Mike. You loved like noone else and unconditionally. Forever your birthday present, Debra and Ben

We've known Mike since the early 80's attending Bellaire Church of Christ in San Antonio together. We have so many fond memories of our families working together at the Church. Those were good times. And how about those Risk games that went past midnight with me, Mike, Philip and a few other men?

We almost always had a meal with Mike and his family when we visited San Antonio. But my favorite was having lunch with Mike and his family at their home. He made the best BBQ.

Our sincere condolences are with you and your families. Those we hold dear never truly leave us. They live on in the kindness they showed, the comfort they shared and the love they brought into our lives. May the healing touch of time ease the sorrow you bear now and the memories that you all cherish give you comfort, courage, peace and the strength to move on as you all return to life's routine. May you all continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

We wouldn’t ever say goodbye to each other but see you again soon and with God all is possible. I truly am not sure who Rita is without Mike but I do know one day at a time and sometimes ,1 minute at a time but I do have God walking besides me and with him everything is possible. I have a beautiful family supporting me. Rest in peace my sweet husband I will always love you.

God blessed your family with a good husband, dad and granddad.


Mike, I will miss your smile and your unique way of singing`Happy Birthday´. Rita I know you´re going to miss him so much. We´re here anytime day or night when you need us. Mike, thank you for being grandpa Mike to our two little ones. Love you and will see you again some day. Johnny, Robbie, Maks and Amrie
