I am so sorry for your loss. I have so many wonderful memories of him. I miss sitting out on my moms porch talking to him when he would stop by with tomatoes. He was amazing! He was so very kind and full of wonderful stories! I will miss him so much!

My condolences to your family. I remember running into your father at the Millcreek Mall a few years ago, and your dad telling me what you all were doing. You could tell he was very proud of you. (An old neighbor-Kathy Hart)

To Mikos family,
I want to extend my deepest sympathies on his passing.
I worked at St Vincent many years while Miko worked there. He was a kind and quiet man and always had a smile on his face. He was so friendly to everyone. I know he will be missed by you all. God Bless him and your family.
With sincere sympathy,
Mary Jane Carson R N
