About Mike

Miguel (Mike) was a teacher, best friend and father-in-law to me.

He was also an amazing father to his kids and a wonderful husband of 42 years to his wife.

Mike was an amazing man. He was an artist and also loved to make things out of wood. He could make anything out of wood.

He was a family man and always enjoyed the company of his friends and family. The more he got your blood boiling, the more you knew he loved you. He loved to debate.

Mike was also a ball of laughs. He’d make you laugh in an instant.

I will surely miss him.

God Bless his Family.

    People never knew just how much he meant to me and you
    They knew him by name, but it’s still not the same

    His eyes so bright, his smile so wide
    We always let him know we were right there by his side

    Now he’s gone from me and you
    Now we have no reason to be blue

    We loved him, he loved us
    And we have to try not to fuss

    He said goodbye and gave you a kiss
    Now all we can do is reminis

    Why does God take the best to love
    Up to that great big world up above?

    His memory will never leave
    His kind and gentle smile will always be seen

    Never forget him, never let him leave your mind
    Tell him you love him, just one more time. Love you lot’s, Miss you much, In my eyes I’ll see you soon your niece Loly (Doris)

    Goodbye My Brother

    My brother Helo an awesome guy,
    I don’t know why you had to die.
    You were so cute as a little boy,
    You smiled at us and brought us joy.

    Even though we had our little fights,
    Over silly things like phone lines and wiring lights,
    I never wanted to be a pest,
    I needed your skills, cause you’re the best.

    I’m glad those times, were only a few,
    It was hard for me to argue with you,
    But that’s just me, as you are you,
    And in the end you always came through.

    This is New York where you are from,
    We all are here with family and Mom,
    Our hearts are broken, as you know,
    We really can’t bear to let you go.

    Sometimes you were so crazy and loony,
    Especially with the friends who call you “Cooney”,
    I know that everyone here will agree with me,
    That the New York Crew is the best there could ever be.

    We wish so much that you were here,
    Or just down “The Cove” havin’ a beer.
    It’s happy thoughts that will get us through,
    Like all the fun we shared with you.

    And now my poem will come to an end,
    Until the day we meet again,
    I pray that you are now at peace.
    Goodbye Helo With Love From Dori

    We little knew that day,
    God was going to call your name.
    In lift we love you dearly,
    In death,we do the same.
    It broke our hearts to lose you.
    You did not go alone.
    For part of us went with you,
    The day God called you home.
    You left us beautiful memories,
    Your love is still our guide.
    And although we cannot see you,
    You are always at our side.
    Our family chain is broken,
    And nothing seems the same,
    But as God calls us one by one,
    The chain will link again.
