I remember when you lived on the first floor of the same building when I first had my daughter. I will always remember you as an awesome man. That day I fell down the stairs you yelled up to the second floor and told them to call 911, you helped big time. Thank you and I will always remember you for being such a sweetheart.

Our families grew up together in Pawtucket. Everyone knew Mickey. He was a funny little guy and a pest at times. We all played together as kids. My prayers for his family and friends. Mickey may you RIP
