Mike, I know that it has been a few months since your father's passing and many years since we have last talked but I am so sorry to hear about the passing of you father. My prayers are with you and your family

God saw that you were getting tired when a cure was not meant to be. So he wrapped his arms around you and said come to me. You didn't deserve what you went through so he gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful. He only takes the best. Mike, no bond is as great as that between a parent and child. May your memories bring you comfort as you grieve. Our deepest condolences and prayers are with you and your family through these next difficult months. Please let us know if there is anything we can do. Debbie & Jim Cusick (Riva, MD)

Dear Mike and Family,

Please accept my sincere sympathy on the passing of your dad. When I heard the sad news from Anne, I immediately remembered him fondly as a friendly, kind and handsome man. A true gentleman. It was always a pleasure to visit your home "back in the day" and I hope that your memories will bring you comfort in your sadness.

Sincerely,
Debbie (Traylor) Bard

Mike and Family,

Anne Gasbarro is the resident Ship keeper upper and historian and she sent the notice of your dad's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. May God be with you as you lay your dad to rest and may your dad's memories always be with you as you face your days.

Dear Mary Lou and Family, Our deepest sympathy on the death of Mike! My memories rush back immediately to your gorgeous wedding day at the old Holy Spirit Church when as a novice altar boy I was your trainbearer because I had not yet learned enough Latin to serve the Mass(10 yrs. old).You were such a dazzling couple and the whole day was flooded with joy and radiance. When you used to visit Nana and Pop Pop Hauck at 63rd St., I remember Mike brimming over with unbridled enthusiasm for St. Joe's Prep and College and his encouragement to push harder in my studies and playing football. Those memories are permanent furniture in my psyche! May God welcome Mike into the Communion of Saints and grant him a life that has no end and give you all the consolation that your love for him will also never end. All our love,Mike and Ruthann Carr, Greysteel, Northern Ireland

Mary Lou and family,
What a wonderful and beautiful life you all shared. My thoughts skipped back to the early days of joining your family and the pleasant times at Sandakfu. God offered us such rewarding lives and we have all been blessed as FAMILY.
What more could we want?

I was so saddened to hear of Uncle Mike's passing and that we are unable to attend his funeral services to support your family. I have wonderful childhood memories as well as grad school memories of his and Aunt Mary Lou's support! Uncle Michael was truly a man for others in his life as he emulated the Jesuit tradition of magis, giving more of himself to others. He will be greatly missed but welcome by the hand of God! Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers in this time of grieving! May God hold you and carry in this time of sorrow. Meg & Brad Bonham and the Kids (Toledo, Ohio)

My heart goes out to all of you. From the day you moved onto Clyde Circle, your family and ours became intertwined. "Mr. K" had such a strong love for his entire family, and spread his joy to ours. After my mother died in 1976, you became the 2nd parents I needed. And I will be forever grateful to you for hosting the rehearsal dinner before my wedding, and helping with all the planning. I will miss his bright smile, and endless cheer. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Mrs. Kienlen and the entire Kienlen Family, please accept my deepest and most sincere sympathy, love and prayers, along with those of my Mom, at this terrible, personal loss for each and every one of you! While I can't possibly know or fathom your own grief, I know the ache and the pain and the loss I experienced when my Father died and what it meant to my Mother. Please know that we will continue to keep your Dad and all of you in our hearts and in our prayers! Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him! May he rest in peace! God love you all!
