I have so many memories of Michael growing up – he was such a good person with a great sense of humor. I remember one time he got hold of his family’s garage door opener and managed to figure out how to program it so he was able to open all the neighbors garages, ours included. Just one example of how bright he is and his incredible sense of humor.
Although it has been a very long time since I’ve seen him, the fond memories never fade and seeing his pictures made me feel like I just saw him yesterday.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you Kathy, Bernard, Kathleen, Erin and Brendan and especially with you, Michael. God bless you all.
Love, Allie, Greg, Madeleine and Kaitlin Werve Koleno
