"Mike was a wonderful man. He had a big heart and loved his family more than anything. Lucy, his children, and grandchildren were his light in this world. It gave Mike great pleasure to show pictures of his grandchildren. He had the most kind heart and would never pass you by without asking how you and your family were doing. I truly am blessed to have know him. My deepest sympathy to his beautiful family. May God give you comfort at this difficult time."

"My heart and prayers go out to all the members of the family. I worked with Mike for many years and we shared many stories of family and his love was infinite. I wish I could attend the services and share a memory and a smile, however I cannot attend. Share memories and Mike will always be present. My sympathy and prayers, Tina Jannetto"
