Hi..my name is Paula Clayton and I work at Villa Maria School at St. Vincent's in Timonium. I just wanted to say how sorry I am about Mike. Mike came in every two weeks to deliver coffee to my office and we always talked about our families, kids, vacations, etc. He always had a smile on his face and always seemed so "happy go lucky." I can't tell you how shocked and upset I was to hear of his death. I will miss seeing him so much. You were all so lucky to have him as a husband and dad. I'm really glad I got to know him!

Debbie, Justin, Luke, and Rosanne:

I've known Mike for over 30 years. No matter how much time went by without us having contact we always seemed to run into eachother somewhere and we were happy and excited to be reunited.

My husband, Ed, met Mike for the first time about 15 years ago when he was working at the Orioles games.

After not seeing Mike for probably 10 years we again ran into eachother when he was working his route. I work at a company where he made deliveries. The first time I saw him there I couldn't believe it was him. He couldn't believe it was me either. That was over six years ago. We finally got the whole family together this past

Summer when we had a cook out at the house and were happy to have all of you spend the day with us.

What I remember most is how much he loved his family. He alwlays said how lucky he was to have all of you.

I'll probably run into him again someday in a happier place.
