I met Mike when we both worked for Bell of Pa at the Baldwin Office in North Philadelphia more than. 50 years ago. That old electromechanical equipment from the 30s was fun to work with. We had a lot of good times together. Godspeed, old friend.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family. It's sad to hear this news today. Being part of the Deodato family brought me many wonderful memories and joyful moments with Linda and Mike. Now, you can be reunited with your cherished wife in heaven. Always remember the beautiful laugh and smiles from Linda.

With hearts full of cherished memories, we remember the good times shared with Michael over the years. We are so grateful for the adventures that brought us together during Michael and Janet´s 13 year companionship. We'll forever hold dear the wonderful moments like Michael's joyful rendition of "Sweet Caroline" at Whitemarsh Valley Inn, the delightful trip to Savannah, the comforting visits to Georgia, our fun-filled time in Ocean City, and all the meaningful chats we shared. Michael's presence enriched our lives, and he will be deeply missed.
With love and remembrance,
Janet, Steppy (Scott/Janet´s son) & Kim (daughter-in-law)

Mike, you were well loved and will be missed so much. But we are glad you are not in the pain and discomfort you had to suffer for the last 3 1/2 years. no more emergency trips to UP, often in the middle of the night, and no more taking you to UP for the numerus tests , Thank you Cathy, Mark, Kevin and Jimmy. You will surely cry for missing Mike but not one drop because you weren't there for him. I know the rest of the Knowles have prayed for you and will also miss you and you joyfulness and your singing voice. but you will have plenty of company now with Fran, Bob, mom and dad, Grandpop Knowles and Aunt Helen, who I am sure has that hot dog truck waiting for you in Heaven. Rest in Peace Mike. My heartfelt condolences and love are with you all.
