I am so sorry for the passing of Michael, I remember him from many years ago, We called him Miami Mike. He was always so full of life and had a beautiful way about him. I am sure he will be missed by everyone that knew him. I will never forget the time he came to the beach with me and my father, we had such a good time. What a great guy he was. My deepest condolences.

Mikey "Shakes" was the Hugh Hefner of Donatello. Style, finesse and strut made him the fashion plate of servers (and never a hair out of place.) His smile, greeting and nod made you feel welcome both as a guest and as a friend. The dance floor will never be the same without Mikey... God Bless You and May You Rest in Peace My Brothah from another Mothah...Marty (the valet guy)
