Catherine and Family, We were stunned when we read the Little Flower Bulletin today. We were out of town and did not know about Michel.. Micheal was born the same day and year as our son Brian. What a friendly guy, he always spoke to us. My Husband was forever calling him John. He'd just laugh and say I'm Mike. Our condolences to everyone. Of course, especially his Daughters. They will be watched and loved from Heaven. He will always be there for them, only in their hearts. Our prayers and peace to all Micheal's Family. Flo and Larry Wort
