Steve and family. So sorry for your loss. It's been many years since I remember taking Mikey out one afternoon to hunt deer at Gig's "Cabin". Though we didn't see a deer that afternoon the experience left a good memory. Again sorry for your loss.

Dear Steve,Judy, Jeff and Melissa,
We are so sorry to learn of Mike's passing. He and Matt had lots of fun over the years. I just saw Mike about a month ago working on the roof across the street from us. It struck me then that he was working so hard! We can only hope that he and Matt are together again.
Give it time. You will remember Mike with the memories you made with him. Sue and Dave Condron

Steve, Judy and the entire Houle Family
I am deeply saddened to hear of Mikey's passing. I know life has been such a struggle for him and also for you as his family. I understand what you have been going through with him, as my son also has a addiction it is so hard on us as their parents we still love them unconditional. His life was way to short. He will always be a part of GG and Mikey hold them close as they are a part of your son. Please if I can ever do anything to help you in any way please let me know. Again I so sorry for your loss.

My sweet little brother
Mikey was courageous, he always approached everyone with a smile. He was always willing and eager to help anyone with anything. Mikey would go out of his way to hold a door or make someone's day any way he could. I can't believe Im here trying to say goodbye, trying to figure out how we are all supposed to go about our lives without you. I love you Mikey you were so strong, sweet and brave. You always knew how to make my day brighter or lighten the atmosphere. You worked so hard at trying to be strong. I will always look for you in every shining star, every whisper in the wind and in every sunrise. I'll look for you in the sweet fallen snow and the crisp autumn frost I'll look for you. You will always continue to be a part of my life, I'll never forget our memories together as is painful as they are it's a part of me, a part of us I'll never let go. You were more than my little brother, you were more then a father, and a friend. You loved unconditionally with no judgement or reserve, I wish I could be more like you. I love you Mikey so much and I will see you again when I come home I hope you'll be waiting there with Grampy, Noni, and Ryan as I love and miss you all so much. Love you always and forever Mikey!! Love Your big-little sister,
Missy

I did meet Michael, but I didn't know him well except through the eyes of his mother; but still, a great sadness came over me when we lost him. It is with a heavy heart that I send condolences to all of his family and friends.

Dear Judy, Steve, Tina, Jeff, Missy, and families,
I know words are insufficient to ease your pain. I will always remember Michael as a sweet, petite five year old whose favorite thing was to spend time with his family. I cherish the memories of packing Mikey, Jeff, Melissa, and Tina in my tiny Honda and driving all around the Berkshires. He loved parades, fishing, and going out for ice cream. Memories of time spent with the Sanginetti and Houle families are some of the best of my life. Snuggling with little Michael as he threw his arms around my neck after coming in from a few dozen runs through the sprinkler on Dodge Ave. was such a treat. Although I haven't seen him in many years, his kind and generous heart will never be forgotten. May his memory be a blessing.
All my love,
Tina xoxo
