Mike, worked for me on and off over the past six years and he was a good friend and employee who was always in a joking mood and that made our graveyard shift work mornings better and enjoying our jokes. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. He will continue to be in my heart and thoughts.

Mike was one of best employees, I was his supervisor for over 10 years at SIKORSKY aircraft on the 3rd shift, I not only enjoyed being his supervisor but he also was a friend and neighbor, we lived around the block from each other. I'm going to miss his good sense of humor but his smile when ever we were to see each other. My wife sends our deepest condolences to his wife, who he Loved unconditionally so much and to his family .
RIP
