Gerry, I learned of Mike’s death today at St. Michael’s church. There was a Mass offering for him in the bulletin.
I always looked forward to seeing you both at Al and Mary’s Christmas party. Mike always the same funny and sweet person I met first as an eighth grader at St. Louis.
I pray Gods’s love will give you strength and peace as you work through your grief.

Gerry you and Mike have been friends for so many years. We were shocked and saddened when you told us of Mike getting his angle wings.
I was blessed to been able to spend so many years working along side Mike. He was a great engineer who was dedicated to his craft, but more important he was a good man.
We had good times with both of you and will miss him. God bless and care for you.

Mike was a generous and lasting friend, one of the first I met after joining Case. After his retirement, visits were infrequent, but always felt as though nothing had changed. Our sympathies to Gerry, and hopes for some light in the days ahead.
