Michael Fura

I just came to a restaurant called "Blueberry Hill". I have eternally linked this son to Mike Fura. He was a wonderful, gregarious man with whom I worked at Duke of York Pub in Auburn, MA. I had been best friends with his wife, Mary Dugas Fura in grade school. I mourn his loss and will attempt to keep his energy flowing through me. RIP.

I'm not sure what compelled me to look for Mike's obituary after all this time. I looked for a tribute to him upon learning of his passing - even though we learned of his passing quite a bit after it happened. Sad, to say the least.

Mike always seemed like a complicated man, but a good man. He was a people pleaser, at least in my view. He delivered a beautiful eulogy at my father's funeral and did so much to try to help him when he was ill with pancreatic cancer. He was a friend to my mom, a friend to my family. He attended my wedding, always extended kind words of encouragement for our business, and was a man of many talents. We wish we were told when he passed, we would have paid proper respect to him at the time. But he hasn't been forgotten by our family.

Rest easy, Mike Fura. We will continue to remember you and your kindness.

Mike Fura was my first cousin. AALTHOUGH I HAVENT SEEN HIM FOR YEARS, I DID THUBK OF HIM OFYEN. I REMEMBER ATTENING HIS DADS FUNERAL AND BECAUSE HIS FATGER LOVED VIOLINS HE HAD A VIOLINIST PLAY IN THE Chapel....it was beautiful. MIKE ALSO PLAYED AT MY WEDDING.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
