Mike was more than just an amazing friend , he was a part of our family from the very beginning of our friendship all those years ago. I can’t remember a major milestone or event that Mike was not a part of. He was there for weddings, baby showers , birthdays, moves, memorials, maiden boat voyages and holidays. Mike was one of the first people to hold and meet each of my three children. He was an amazing “Uncle Mike” to them and he was one of their favorite people. My deepest sympathies to all of his family, he was a wonderful person and a true friend and I am so glad to have had him in my life for all these years. Sending you all love and strength. Xoxo Emily

I had the pleasure of working with Mike on the PET Scanner over the last 9 years. He was always compasionate and caring to all his patients. He always had a smile on his face and a story to tell. He will surely be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

I lived in the apartment above Mike for a few years, back in the early 2000s, on Oxford Street in Rochester. Mike was a kind, gentle person who always made me laugh. We had a lot of fun hanging out and letting our dogs play together, as they were both puppies at the time. I last saw Mike a few years ago, when I randomly bumped into him at Fenway Park.

To Mike’s family, I’m so sorry for your loss. You are in my prayers.

Kathy, Tom and Ryan,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I can not imagine what you are going through. Michael was such a fine young gentle man. I still remember him as the young boy from our camping trips, especially at Camp Giunta. I remember how excited and proud the boys were with their own haunted hay ride. I know there are so many wonderful things to remember about Michael. Hold on to your memories and your friends and family. We are all here for you.

when I was very young, my family and I were visiting and in the back seat of Kathy’s car, Michael and Ryan were arguing over who got to sit by me Ryan saying, that isn’t fair mike you got to sit by him twice! Which makes me laugh now and I remember feeling special that they liked me that much. I also remember riding ATV’S and playing badminton and how much I looked up to Mike and that he didn’t treat me like the annoying younger kid that always wanted his attention

Dearest Kathy,

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your dear son. Losing a child is the hardest thing for parents to face. I am praying for you and your family as you endure this difficult passage of your lives.

I regret that I will not be able to attend the memorial service this Friday, April 5, because my husband and I will be out of town.

You have my love and sympathy,

Marge Sakamoto (former RIT colleague and fellow retiree)
