So sorry to hear of Mikes passing, my prayers go out to the Gallese family. We grew up with Mike when he lived on Houghton Street, Mike and my cousin Bill Andersen we’re best friends. I’ve always thought a lot of Mike, he use to come to Bryant St. And hang out with us. Being as Mike was, he was such a great guy, soft spoken and always friendly. May he be at peace now.

A sad day for me hearing about my cousin Michael. A lot of memories of fishing in "the brook" and enduring the tall tales of our Uncle Richard together. My last memories of him were seeing him at Tommy's summer outings. A gentle soul and a good guy.
My thoughts are with Tom and Bob today. | from: Steve Ouellette | on: 02-09-2022 |
