I was so saddened to learn of Mike's passing. I know he was active at Our Lady of Lourdes, I always attend the Sunday mass so I rarely see you. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Sandy

We are all going to miss the amazing energy that Mike brought wherever and whatever he was doing. Along with a wonderful sense of humor, a ready smile, and a willingness to help whenever he was asked, no matter the task. We enjoyed all our chats with you and you will certainly have many friends greeting you on the other side. Our deepest sympathy to his family, they will have many wonderful memories to carry them through the next days. Our thoughts are with you.

I understand what it means to loose a father. A much stronger feeling for life will comfort you through the following days. Unpon reflections of you life you will see your Dad and a shy smile will cross your face. Be proud that your father raised you to be the person you are today.
Love,

As you begin to process the passing of a dear friend, companion, lover and husband one is hit with feelings of solitude, loneliness and grief, but those feelings will subside and as in all things time heals all wounds. You will undoubtedly begin to remember all the best of times and joys you shared in your life together. These memories are the bonds that will make you grow stronger and stronger in your conviction and will to be a surviving legacy of who Michael was in life. It is like Jesus said in his parable: "A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world." So to will you remember only the best of times you and Michael have shared together, when your travail and sorrow slowly subsides over time. God Bless and my husband (John) and I pray for you and Michael.

Mickey, we will sorely miss you at the Chequessett Club. We will carry the memory of your love of the game to the first tee every time we play golf.

“A Parable of Immortality”
By Henry van Dyke

As I stand on a mountaintop,
As the great bird approaches,
He is small in my sight but grows larger on approach,
Until I am blessed with the full sight of his graceful wings,
Proud countenance and good company.

All too quickly he grows small again on the horizon
And disappears from view,
And I call out, “There, he is gone!”

But then on a mountaintop beyond me,
And at the precise moment when I note
The great bird’s departure from my view,
I know that there are new eyes taking up the sight of him,
And fresh voices calling out, “Here he comes!”

Virginia,
We were all shocked and saddened when the word passed through Church this
weekend of Mike's unexpected death. He along with yourself had just recently
helped give out communion at OLOL as you do every summer. We will have a Mass
celebrated in his memory on Sunday, August 14th at the 10 AM Mass. Please be
assured of the prayers and sympathy extended to you and your family by your summer parish community here in Wellfleet.
