Dear Jay,
Danny and I were saddened at the news of Mike's passing. What a wonderful man he was. I fondly remember how much fun he and Don Gillespie had when they got together. I know my dad (Charlie Pierce)thought the world of him. You're in our thoughts and prayers.

I am sorry to hear of Mike's death. I extend my deepest sympathy to you. I always enjoyed the times he had a role at my Masses. I will have Mass said for him here at my parish.
Sincerely,
