My sympathy to Jackie, Danny and all the cousins. Growing up on Maple Ave. would not have been the same without the Cronins! Michael was the quiet one, but he followed cousin Stephen and was part of the gang. I'm sorry I was unable to attend the services (we were away on vacation) and to meet his wife and son. Memories are what we all hold onto at times like these. May your happy memories be a source of comfort.

As a child it was obvious that Michael was different than me. When I was young I thought that these differences such as his love of art, his preference to talk to people rather the compete against them in sports and his interest in getting to know a person were all weaknesses. I'm quite a bit older now and I can now see that these traits were in fact Michael's strengths. These are the qualities that made in special.
Shortly before our Dad passes away Michael was visiting and talking about getting a third dog. After he left, my Dad commented what a crazy idea it was for Michael to get another dog. My reply was "Michael is a very caring person with a lot to give". That's the way he was.......very giving and very caring of each person.
Michael's love of art lead him to a successful career as an architect. His caring of people lead him to be our family's "Social Ambassador"...whenever you needed to know how anyone in the family was doing, you'd talk to Michael. His interest in each individual made him the most active family member in participating in the major events of everyone else's lives.
What I once thought were my brother's weaknesses were in fact his strengths and ironically have turned out to be my weaknesses. I need to strive to be more like Michael in these areas.
I'm proud to say Michael was my brother and I will do my best to remember the life lessons he has taught me through his example.

Catherine and Cam, We will always remember him as smiling so proudly at every SJP drama production! Always so supportive no matter who was on the stage! We could tell how happy and proud he was on your BC Graduation Day - that smile was from ear to ear! May the wonderful memories you shared help you during this difficult time. With love, The Carli Family

We are so thankful to have had the opportunity to visit with Michael in Louisiana in March. It was wonderful to reconnect and get to know him again. He will always be remembered as our cute cousin with the "funny accent." Our thoughts and prayers are with all of your families. I know he will be greatly missed.
