My mother and father have been Mikes neighbor since he moved in to his home. When we would go over to mow the grass or clean the house, Mike would always come out and over to the fence to talk. He would talk about his wife and let us know how she was doing,and how he was doing. He will be greatly missed as a neighbor and a friend. My condolences to the Pituch family.

I have been Mike's mail carrier for 20 years, I have really enjoyed talking to him about family, sports, and his wife. And as of last year we enjoyed going to baseball games together. I am sorry for your loss, and I will miss him.
