So very sorry to hear of the passing of Michael. I deeply regret that I couldn’t go and see him in the nursing home. Only last Saturday I said to a neighbour, that I hope to be able to go and visit him soon, before it’s too late.........I will always remember this kind, caring and generous gentleman. The storyteller...The adventurer.....The outstanding father, who put an enormous effort into the upbringing of his children. And I will always be grateful for all the help he gave to me, when I needed a handyman years ago. this local hero will never be forgotten.
Deepest sympathy to Ryan, Thomas, Michael, Jeanne, Nena, Kathy and all the family.
I’m sure he will go straight up to heaven.
May he rest in peace ❤️

Deepest sympathies to all of his children and family. He was a great man! I always admired his dedication to his health. He was a swimmer for years. I remember always feeling welcome in their home when visiting the cousins and how he lined us up in age/years to see how we all were growing up. That was fun and uncle loved that. We looked like a stair case with the years differences. Condolences to the family and smile while you remember the good times you all had. Hugs to you all❤️
