I was so saddened to hear that Mikey had left this planet. He will always be remembered as the sweetest of souls. I loved working at Penny Hill with him and the times he would help us out at Village Green. You have my sincere condolences, Tony.

I am so sorry for your loss. What a great family.
I knew you Mike for a few years and we had wonderful and so touching similarities that made us cry. I will miss them and miss you. Now it is pain free and live like you always wanted. Look over your family and friends. I love you.

Tony, I was soooo…… sad to hear of Mike’s passing when Sheilah called me. The news just broke my heart. So I want to offer my love, support and heartfelt condolences to you. We had to come. It was so good to see you and Dale at the house.
There are no more aches and no more pain, Mike is free, he is at rest now… I’ll always remember our fun times at Aunt Doris’s house and all the funny things Mike used to say and do. Your love for him was evident from the start. Mike was fun, funny and fun loving. He was a gentle soul. He will remain with us now in spirit … We won’t soon forget him, how could we? Smiles!!! So remember Tony what I said, you are not alone. God is with you and so are we. I know your heart is broken but right now and it seems as though the pain will never pass but Joy comes in the morning. Just hold on to God’s unchanging hand. He will never leave you nor forsake you. You are his child… God is with you…
Your Friend Carol,
Submitted with a heavy heart

Michael – I think back to the years we worked together as floral designers with great fondness. You, me, Carole, Diane, Dale and Barry were quite a talented team.We created amazingly beautiful floral work…..from 15 foot tall centerpieces at the Hotel DuPont to creating ‘cherry’ trees at a farm in PA. We worked hard, but had SO MUCH FUN along the way. I will miss your generous spirit and wonderful smile.My sincere sympathy and heartfelt condolences to Tony and your extended family……………………..Carolyn Ferguson

I just happened to be thinking about Mike and Tony and decided to look him up on Facebook. I was so saddened to hear of his passing. I was there the night Tony and Mike met. What a night that was :)…. They were inseparable ever since. I will always remember his kindness and warm spirit. Take your rest Mike and when we all get to heaven what a day of rejoicing that will be!
