  1. I remember your beautiful golden blonde hair as a little boy. You were a beautiful child! Spoiled by mom to the kilt!! We were all 4 of us like the “ Lil’ Rascals”. Mischievous, adventurous playing in our back yard and in front of 319 West 22nd street, Manhattan. Where we were all born!! Our “ hippie days” in Greenpoint, Bklyn… wow!! Then life happens and takes us on different paths. I chose the one less traveled but always found my way to visit you and mom in Puerto Rico. Then we all lost our first love… mom. Now you, our baby brother… you will forever be loved and remembered… by us your family… Ray, Liz, Junior, Natalie and David

  2. Sorry for your lost sis that God give strength and comfort to you and your family.

  3. GOD SAW YOU GETTING TIRED,AND A CURE WAS NOT TO BE; SO HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND YOU, AND WHISPERED, “COME TO ME” WITH TEARFUL EYES WE WATCHED YOU, AND SAW YOU PASS AWAY; ALTHOUGH WE LOVED YOU DEARLY, WE COULD NOT MAKE YOU STAY.A GOLDEN HEART STOPPED BEATING, HARD WORKING HANDS TO REST.GOD BROKE OUR HEARTS TO PROVE TO US , HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST.
    REST-IN-PEACE!!!

    We will be together on the next life. You were the love of my life since we were kids. Thought me everything: to be strong, to be happy on simple things like the sky, mountains, the beach, softly music and the rain. To love and been loved with all your heart, feelings and soul. I promise.

  6. Mike, my brother from another mother. I met you when you were 9 years old… so yes ,my brother! We had a long journey … Our playing pool days… concerts, hanging out with the guys being young and foolish. Then we grew up… matured… and chose our paths seeking for something more meaningful. I pray you had times where you found it…I did.
    I thank GOD for giving me the opportunity of giving you the best gift, choice decision of your life JESUS!
    Bro… you beat me…enjoy HIS presence till we meet again…peace!! I love you…

    It was a long year together, you were a fighter. We didnt always see eye to eye, but got to finally understand each other. May you finally be free of pain and rest easy..

  8. Rest in peace Mike. I pray you listened to the last thing I whispered in your ear…” ask God for forgiveness … HE will forgive you.” And then I asked God to bless you. And told you I loved you. I prayed for you everyday asking God to alleviate your pain… HE did! You are now resting in His presence. I love you my brother… till we meet again.

    We may not have saw eye to eye on a lot of things, but over the last year together during your darkest days, I got to see a different side of you and we finally understood each other. May you rest easy and pain free

  10. Your memory will live on, I promise. I’ll make sure your grandkids know what a amazing dad you were to me and that you loved them so very much. I wish I could have been there for you this past year, just know you was always in my thoughts and if I could I would. Thank you for teaching me so much. I will never forget all our trips, talks and good times. To the best softball coach, to loving dad, to the cool grandpa to the LION…. I love you May you Rest in Peace. XOXO
