Dearest Carol and Family,I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I had many fond memories with Mike at our fun family functions growing up in Chicago. I spent a lot of time with the Witkowski family on Touhy. The last time I saw Mike he was lovingly telling me about how proud he was of his Children and Grandchildren. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Sincerely, cousin Donna
