I'm very sorry to hear of Mikey's passing. I will never forget him. He was my dad's best friend and I will always remember the fun I had being around the two of them. Mikey and my dad certainly knew how to have a good time. I will miss seeing him at Sunday breakfast with my Uncle Donny. Please accept my deepest condolences and I am truely sorry I can not be there for the services. Mikey will be missed, but he will always be in my heart right next to my dad.
All the best in this sad time
Ron & Jill
