Antoinetta and Frank,sorry I could not be there to hug you in person as you say goodbye to your father.Just to let you know ,Mike was a member of our family in the Soo before he met your mother and had you kids.He was like the older brother rather then a first cousin,driving the blue 56 Ford,thick head of hair and mustache (now with a bit more grey), One of my many fond memories was walking through Square One Mall during renovations 1987.I hear my name called “Gig” ,There in the ceiling was Mike .How he recognized me ,I will never know,but I will never forget that day.With heavy hearts and kisses Louis Coccimiglio &family
I appreciate my memories of the chats and laughs while having espresso in Michele’s kitchen with Michele and Frank.
I always admired Michele’s positive attitude and his strength as a bull.
God Bless you Michele as you enjoy espresso with your wife again, while you watch over your family from Heaven.
