Went to McCloskey with Mike, he always had a smile upon seeing you! He was a genuinely nice guy sorry to hear of his passing. From our sight to God's arms, may he rest in peace.

Cousin Mike was a confidant to a lot of his younger cousins, he was easy to talk and although he would laugh at us, he didn't judge us. Mike was the same Mike every time you were with him. I remember that my mother was quite fond of him and on a couple occasions Mike acted as buffer for me, keeping me from a couple whoopings. I love my cousin. Remembering him dearly, to the family, much love and Gods Blessing. Chris Franklin and family

Michael the quiet little cousin with that crooked grin, was me and Janice game night partner. He was one of the nicest people anyone could ever meet. He loved his family and we all loved him. He will be missed but never forgotten.
