Theresa, Matt, entire Booco family,
It was with great sadness that I learned of Mikes passing. I loved our visits together when he would call on us. We would generally swap hunting stories but the thing I remember most was how easy it was to converse with him about anything and everything. He was so welcoming and down to earth. I looked up to him! Going through my rolodex recently and came across his business card bringing fond memories. I'm so sorry for you loss please accept my sincere condolences.

Theresa & Matthew-
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you and your entire family during this difficult time. It should be with great pride that your father knew that he nurtured such fine children during his time on earth.
God Bless

During all of the years that I played softball with Theresa in high school and college, there were certain parents who stood out as being extra kind and supportive. I always loved seeing the Boocos--who were so welcoming and genuine. Theresa was such a special friend and teammate, and I know that so much of what I appreciated about Theresa came from Mr. and Mrs. Booco and your family. I am so sorry for you loss. I hope your fond memories of a wonderful father help you through your sad times.

My first meeting with Mike was by living next door to his rental home on Wyandot street. Mike was always a very giving man & always helped his tenants during hard times. I will miss seeing him when he checks on the property. He was always willing to help every way he could.
My thoughts & prayers are with the family.

Uncle Mke,
My memories of you are mostly from my childhood. That I will keep in my heart forever, one in particular is from Easter one year when you give us those beautiful basket full of goodies. I Also want to thank you for your kindness and love when I'd go stay with you and Auntie Loyola on those summers while I'd have my visit to the children's hospital . Rest in peace

Uncle Mike,I have so many wonderful memories of you and stories you and Dad would tell us. My daughter Melissa said she could always count on you being at the baseball field for everyone's games cheering. I will have such wonderful memories in my heart always just as so many other's. You will be missed so much but, now you will be with Grandma, Grandpa and Dad again. I love you.

Mike,
Thank you for blessing the world with your daughter Barb, my college roommate. She remains one of the kindest most caring people I've ever known in my life. And thank you for, years ago, helping someone you barely knew repair her broken-down car. You salvaged my vacation. You took time from other things to enable me to get back on the road. Now you are watching over your beautiful family. Peace and love.

April 21, 2015

Unshackled from our Earthly struggles and in the Grace of the Holy Father, we miss you, we love you and will carry you in our hearts every day.

In loving memory - Michael.
