My sincere condolences to Mike's family- we knew one another as children and high school friends. Having moved away many years ago, I'd lost touch and was so saddened to learn of Michael's death through another mutual classmate (I was actually a classmate of John and my sister was Mike's classmate). May You all be comforted by the many memories you share and knowing that others care . God Be with and Bless you all-Joan Farina Pierce

To the Settino Family,

I was blessed to have Michael as my closest friend @ Braintree High. We shared so many great times. On the Basketball court, Mike is the reason the '64 team won 21 consecutive games (the BHS record) My heartfelt prayers are with you always.

To the family of Michael.........

I am so sorry to hear of your untimely loss. I was a classmate of Michael at Braintree High School and a fellow 1964 graduate with him. I remember clearly his positive attitude and humility, despite his substantial accomplishments on the basketball team. While our paths did not cross after graduation, it is refreshing to note that he was a good family man and that he enjoyed such a long and happy marriage. Please accept my deepest sympathies to his family and frients. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Norm Bossio
