Joey and Donna sorry this is long time coming. I never was told about the passing being your first Cousin. I found out from a friend who was the Mother of a friend who knew and a friend of Michael's. It shocked me and Patty. We never got a chance to know Michael as an adult. We sympathize what you went through and hope time has healed some of the sorrow and pain. Love to both of you.

Mikey, I will miss you so much. Everyone is going to. I haven't hung out with you in a long time and I wish I could change that and have seen you lately. You were such a kind and funny person. I will always remember your funny fisherman and lawnmower dances.And when you would have a rude do hair day. My heart goes out to Maria, the Halters and Cataudella family. I will keep you all in my prayers and thoughts.

Dear Donna,



I am truly blessed to have you in my life. I know that meeting you was no accident. You have not only

taught me, but showed me, what a mother's unconditional love is for her children. You have been there

always for both Joey and Michael,

in hard times and good times. You have been there for me so many times. I want you to know I am here for you. May you cherish the memories you shared with Michael and find peace that your love for him was beyond reproach.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, your mom, and Joey.



God be with you,

Love Carolyn
