Kathleen, I know what you are experiencing as I too lost my husband much too early. May you find strength in your wonderful memories and your loving family. May you know God's peace at this difficult time.

I am so saddened by Mike's passing. I worked with Mike at Hocehstetter/RRD. He was such a kind, caring person and I always enjoyed his company. The funeral Mass was beautiful and there is no doubt he is watching over his family from heaven.

Dear Kathleen, Michael, Cortney, Katie, Cheryl, Dave and all the extended members of the Wojtaszek and Betzler families, you are all in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. I hope you take some comfort knowing how proud Mike was of all you and from reading through the messages, how happy he was to share that pride with all he met. To those of us who have known you and Mike forever (from Moyer Street, to Holy Innocents) Mike's memory will live on in the legacy of the incredible family he left behind. Love and prayers,
Mary O'Toole

My old friend. So many memories-wiffle ball at the hospital yard. Wiffle ball and basketball in the back yard. The radio ball tossed in heaven now. Bike hikes to the rock and MA-Yacca-Homa. Paul the Ba-ball.
Traipsin the streets of Sheraden hitting cars with snow balls and running like hell. The only guy who could throw a nerf football two telepoles. Ice hockey with 2am practice times and basketball and sled rides down Ladoga and BIG Faronia. The Flyers,the Hawks, Go carts and mini bikes and walks to Mcgonagle and the country club. Playing off the wall and step ball endlessly. Building bike ramps for jumps and playing army and release. Beers with your grandman and p & b sandwichs at 2am.
What a childhood we had. What a fine man you are. Glad to call you my bud. No matter how much time between seeing each other It always felt like home when we got together. You will be missed Rest in peace

Mike was my printer rep at a prior job, and he so beautifully took care of me and my creative team. He was the nicest guy, and we always looked forward to his arrival at the office. I'm heartbroken for his family (whom he always talked about lovingly and with pride) and colleagues. He will be missedand remembered for being someone to emulate for his sense of humor, kindness, and integrity. My deepest sympathies to his loved ones. RK
