Unfortunately, I just found out about Michael's death. I hadn't seen him for years, but want his family and friends to know that he was a wonderful friend to all of us on the paddle tennis team and on the Over Thirty Down and Dirty Running Club in the early 80's. I don't think any of us will forget how sweet and witty he was; a better "bud" could not have been found. I am so sorry that he has left this world, but know that he was welcomed with open arms by our Lord and Savior. I'll miss you, Michael! So will the Mushkett!

Michael, our wonderful friend and soon to be son-in-law, will remain in our hearts, always.
He was a very special man, always happy with that little twinkle in those blue Irish eyes. The short years we knew him we all fished, joked, laughed and enjoyed life. The only thing he wouldn't tolerate was Jim (SC)discussing odds of the yearly SC-Notre Dame game.He loved his church, family and Lori. Rest In Peace Michael.

For my Michael,
As I write this msg, your many, MANY friends and relatives are mourning your loss and planning numerous Irish Wakes. You touched so many lives and always took care of others - am not sure you would like to be the center of attention but sometimes - it just happens my dear. Your suffering is now over, you are with the Lord, God Speed - wait for me, I know you're out there somewhere and someday you'll return again to me (Mmm - there's a song there...)
I will love you always, Lori

Michael touched so many lives with his humor,love of politics and larger than life personality. We truly loved him and will miss him. We would have been proud to call him our brother-in-law. He brought so much joy and happiness to my sister Lori. We all knew they were soulmates and meant to be together. She was very devoted to him and cared for him tirelessly.
Michael's strong belief in Jesus gave him the strength he needed to fight his awful disease. Even though he lost his battle with cancer,those of us who believe in the Lord,know that Michael no longer suffers but is an angel in God's choir. Jesus said, "Behold, I make all things new. Clipped wings will grow again". God has taken away Michael's pain and "made him new".
