What a great man. He and my Dad, Jimmy Gioia, had the distinct honor of both being Italian police officers on Normal Ave. For some reason most of them were Irish. Loved being neighbors back in the good old days of Bridgeport. All of our parents are now sitting on the front porches of heaven. We were all blessed to have had such giving parents . . . lots of love, lots of good food . . . lots of fond memories. Love, Gail Gioia Lakatos Now residing in Venice, Florida

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. We will always keep the memories of "Big Mike" close to our hearts. God bless.

My sympathy to Mike, Davey ,Karen , and the entire Marano family. your dad was a neighborhood icon. Your dad was one of the great parents we all were so lucky to have grown up with in our neighborhood.

My prayers and sympathy is with your family Steve & Cindy Dombrowski.

Dear Karen and family my sincere sympathy for the loss of your Father. Going back and remembering all the good times we shared. We were young but still remembering. We used to live across the street from your Grandmothers house and my Mom and Dad were always sitting outside. Mrs Scalzo had the store. Well now my Mom and Dad will be together talking about the good old days. Love to the Marano And Pintaro Families.

Dear Karen and Family,
So very sorry to hear of the loss of your Father. I regret that I won't be able to attend his services, but will be keeping all of you in my prayer.
God Bless,
Terry Hogan

Thoughts and prayers with my cousins (Mike, David, Karen) and their families during this sad time. A peaceful end to a full life well-lived. Uncle Mike will be missed by us all.

Mike and Julie, we are very sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you. Tony and Dawn (Via Bella).

My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time. Praying you find comfort.

On behalf of the Havlicek Family we are very sorry for your loss. For many years we were next door neighbors and have many fond memories of Mike Sr.

Each of us is sent here to do a job. When Mike met Jesus at the gates, Jesus patted him on the back and said "well done Son, well done, welcome home!" It doesn't get easier, just more familiar but some comfort is found in the fact that he, directly or indirectly, touched so many lives. Lives that will carry a piece of him with them forever.

We are so sorry for your Families Loss, he has left so many great memories for you,your children and stories you can tell your grandchildren,keep him alive in spirit with your laughter ,then thy will never truly be gone! Johnny & Doreen Chiarelli
