Dear Janet, Michael, Jennifer and families and Tom and Louise, please accept our sincere sympathy on Mike's passing. Mike was a fantastic cousin who was like a brother and a best friend to me. His Mom, my Mother's cousin, sponsored me to the U.S. in 1958. I met my cousins Mike and Tom, 2 days after arriving in NY, Mike flew planes and Tom flew motor bikes. 1st week in US, Mike in his Air Force Officer' Uniform took me to NY Air Nat. Guard Base where he was giving a class to young Airmen and it was awesome. Mike never forgot his roots, he spoke to me 2 or 3 times a month and always offered great advice. I really miss him and I am very fortunate to have known him, he was a true friend. Mike, you must be on a 747 now somewhere. Mike was so proud of Jennifer and Michael and his grandchildren. Goodbye Mike, and remember us in heaven. Thanks for being a best friend. Austin, your cousin, Niantic, CT, formerly from Sligo, Ireland.
