We just found out about Mikes passing. So sorry. We become out of touch when our elders pass away. Mike was always so funny and full of life when we would see him up at his cousin Joseph and Anne Manella's home.

We only new Mike a short time, but he was a pleasure to talk with and visit. We will miss his wit, and pleasant conversation. The cookouts at Jim and Maria's will always be remembered. May Mike be with God and the Angels forever.
