The loss of my Son is unbearable to me. Mike was a Big man with a gentle heart and would help anyone in need. He loved his wife and children and grandchildren dearly
Our hearts are broken for such an unexcepted loss. As his Mother, I don’t know how to heal my broken heart. He was always an adventurous little boy and played football until he graduated High School. Then he became a big bad Marine Semper Fi and even though he was wounded, he was proud to be a Marine all his life. My heart breaks for his Brother that is left alone. I loved my two boys with all my whole heart and will forever more!
Val & I will miss Mike and Chinh’s visits to Florida! To my Grandsos and Grandaughters, please cherish your fond memories of your Dad.
With all our Love and Prayers from Mom and Step-Dad Val
Memory Eternal ❤️❤️

My heart is heavy. I just saw him at Mass on Sunday and was led to pray for him and his family’s peace as they have been through so much. Thank you God for receiving Mike into your glorious kingdom as heaven is his home-never this world. Chinh, Mike made a Godly difference in this world and I am blessed to have known him. I didn’t know him well but what I did know is that he was a faithful man of God who loved Jesus and served Him and others.
May peace be with you and your family.
Truly,

So saddened to hear of Mike’s passing. I stopped to say a prayer for his family, no words can be said to ease the grief that we go through, but the Bible says, “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” R.I.P. and Semper Fidelas Marine.
