My deepest sympathy to Mike's sisters: Joann, Kathy and Susie. Remembering our neighborhood, teenage years and all the fun with the Roma crowd of which Mike was such a huge part of.

Rest in peace, Mike.

Dear Kathy, Suzie, and Joanne, I am so sad for the lose of your brother. Mike was always a gentleman. I.ll remember him that way, and how "cool" he was growing up in the neighborhood. He and my brother, Marty, had a great friendship. Mike will be missed,but NEVER forgotten. I'm sorry he had to go soon. Erna Brotschul
