Dear Micael & Amy, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your dad; he was quite a character and the world will be less 'fun' without him.

Like many, I knew your father through Al-Anon, where he made me life and offered his wit and wisdom to many. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Hi Michael and Amy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad added much wisdom, humor and joy to my life. His astute observations and stories about life mesmerized me. I was lucky to have a man like him in my life. I think the world is a better place having had him for the amount of time that we did.

Michael was my uncle and I have many many fond memories of him. He was always such a great looking man. Hollywood really messed up by not casting him in the movies. I will miss talking to him. I know everytime I talked to him he would brag on his son and his grandsons.
Love you lots Uncle Mike.. till another day.. xoxox
