Michael, you were an amazing uncle. You always opened your home to me as a teenager and young adult. I have very fond memories of spending my summers with you and Luiza. You had a great witty sense of humor; always happy and entertaining. You welcomed Deirdre to our family and we always enjoyed our time together in Toronto, NY and even Florida. You will be greatly missed but your memories will always live on ! Our deepest condolences to the Fernandes, Miersch & Gomes family !
