Mike and I played freshman basketball together. He'd say "Murphy me boy." He had a bad Irish brogue, probably because he was Italian. He was a nice guy.

Mike and I also played baseball in Millbrae at Taylor and later at Serra. He was a great catcher and friend. I miss him and his family...

Very sorry to hear of Mike's passing. Although we went separate ways after high school, I will always remember a great guy, and a big personality. He will be missed

So sorry to read of mikes passing in the Serra traditions magazine. Mike became one of my very good friends at Serra and although we went our separate ways after graduation I still to this day remember the times we spent together. I wish him peace and pray for his family. Seems he stayed the same as he got older which makes it easy to see why people have always loved him

Mike and I played baseball together growing up in Millbrae and then later at Serra. He was my battery mate. We sure had a lot of fun together as kids (I especially remember certain mischevious deeds that are best left unshared!) but somehow lost track of each other as we got older. I am very sorry for your loss and will always remember Mike as a good friend and great teammate.

So Sorry for the loss of a great guy, I look back fondly on the years we coached, hunted, played poker, and drank beer together. It was always a great time to spend a Holiday, or a Super Bowl with Mike and his family.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I worked with Mike at Boise in St. Helens and got to see him when he came to town around the time the mill was closing. Taken to young....prayers for the family.

Very sorry to hear of Mike's passing. He was definitely a fun person who always had his family and friends in mind. I know he adored his mom, his sister, Vicky, Summer, Justin and Matthew and all his relatives and friends. The thing I remember about Mike is he could always be counted on to get any job done extremely well, either at work, at the plate or in the field. He had a great work ethic. Amazing right handed hitter as well.

Very sad to hear of Mike's passing. We played summer baseball together in Millbrae, Ca. in '73 and one year at USF. Mike was a very good player with a strong arm and bat.
I'm sure he will be missed by his family and all the lives he touched.

We are devastated to hear of the loss of Michael here at Terrace Lakes Resort. He and his wife, Vicki, were here almost every weekend playing golf and enjoying his friends and family. He had such a great laugh and a smile that would brighten up the room when he came in. You could tell he was always having a great time. Our condolences to Vicki and his family. He will be missed at Terrace Lakes.

Sad News....Mike Giusti was one of my best friends in High School and College years.
I have many fond remembrances from our days at Serra, Boise State and many practices together in the off season.
Mike was our quarterback on our undefeated freshman year! We went on to play baseball together in high school, college and semi-pro teams. Too many stories to tell and many to remain untold....cheers to Mike and my prayers are with his family in Idaho.

Mike was simply the best!
He was so supportive of our Purchasing Department and the International Falls, MN Mill.
He was always there for us and would never hesitate to lend a hand.
We will greatly miss Mike. A wonderful boss, co-worker and most importantly, friend...
Rest in peace,

The Purchasing Staff at Jackson, Al will never forget Mike. He for many years was a great manager for our group. He never backed down from communicating the "hard stuff," but was right there getting your back if you needed that, too. He has been our advocate and cheerleader through many a rough spot. It will be so surreal not to "just call Mike." To Vickie and family, our hearts go out to you and this man with a big heart had to be special to you. My last conversation with him was about what he was going to be doing with and for his grandkids while Vickie and her sisters were on a retreat together. We both agreed that was what memories were made of. Glad he got to take those with him and you will have them to keep. God Bless.
