Hi, We were so lucky to see Mike this past November. He helped us do fire wood at the farm for my parents. It was just like old times when we use to spent time together at the farm. We will miss him and remember all of the old times at the farm when he use to come and stay with us.

Love Jo-Ann and Glenn and Jessica and Donnie and Mary-Ann

Wally, Carmen & Family, Each time I open this up and plan on signing in I look at Michael's picture and my loss of words to type kicks in. Our family fell in love with Michael many years ago when he spent time at the farm with all of us. He became part of our family. I was able to see him twice since then. The years since we had seen him did not matter, he was still part of our family and we still loved him. We were so blessed because our last visit in November was so great. He helped our family stack wood for the winter and it was like old times, We laughed, we talked and we were all young again. It was like old times and we treasured our visit with him, we talked about how great it was after he went home. Now all we have is that memory. My heart aches for you as your loss is great. I do believe he is in a better place, at peace, and he will always be with you. Watch for his signs, he is with us all, and at the same time he is with all of your loved ones that have passed. Our deepest sympathy to you all. Love, Donna, Vince & Vince II Darcangelo

Mr. and Mrs. Ahearn, Pam and Kelly-I was so sorry to hear about Mike. I had the pleasure of running into him around Stratford over the years since Pamela and I were good friends and he was always pleasant and stopped to chat. It turns out my brother Ken also spent time with Mike fishing over the years. He was also very shocked to hear and sends his deepest sympathy. I have fond memories of your family even after all these years. Again, I'm so sorry to all of you for your loss.
