Colleen and dear family. You have our deepest sympathy in this time of loss. Mike was one of the sweetest men we've ever met. I'll never forget his reverence at 7:30 Mass each and every week at St. Pat's. His love of the Lord and his beautiful family. Brian - Shannon and Chris, Cate and all of our McLaughlin/Antypas/Lewis family send our love. Your dad was a gem. We believe he is now in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior. God bless all of you.
