Michael E. Walukevich

I remember Mike delivering groceries right next to his Grandma's house on Washington St. in East Walpole when Edmund (his Dad) owned & ran the "East Walpole Cash Market" on Washington St. The vehicle was a International Harvester. My Mom (receiver of the delivery) was respectfully called 'Mrs. Sheppy' by Mike.

East Walpole.
.... Bird Park, the Park Snack Bar, the East Walpole Cash Market, the total Blue Collar genre.....are LONG GONE. I WILL NEVER Forget Mike, Paul, Mark, Edmund & Jenny.
R.I.P. Mike.......

To the family, relatives, & friends of the Walukevichs:
Before there was "What about Mike?", the Blind Side, & Big Mike, there was the genuine, affable, & commanding presence of Michael Walukevich! I know because Mike protected my backside & cleared the way for myself & the running backs of Xaverian´s 1971 varsity football team!
I haven´t talked, seen or been in touch with Mike since our Xaverian graduation day at Boston College That´s not to say I didn´t think about Mike or forget the wisdom, joyful laughter, & hard work he put in to make life & our football team the best we could be!
How fitting Mike would become the go to butcher in his community, dedicating himself to the health & welfare of his family, friends, & customers!
You lived a good life Mike & left your indelible, positive attitude & infectious smile for all of us to enjoy, not to mention all of your Halloween costumes!
Rest in Peace Mike Lord knows he just drafted one of the premier right tackles & a genuine human being!
May rainbows run beside you in a sky of blue & May your laughter grace our hearts throughout eternity!
Phil McMorrow, QB class of `71 Xaverian Hawks Varsity Football Team Go Hawks!

My sincere condolences to the entire Walukevich family. Michael was a classmate of mine at Xaverian and I'll always remember Michael as a very kind and gentle person. We lost contact after high school due to our careers taking us to different geographic locations. Michael was also a teammate who always displayed a calm demeanor along with leadership qualities. An absolute gentleman. God Bless all of you and may our prayers help to ease you pain.
