Michael T. Trovato

My wife Rosemarie explained how special Mike and Betty were in her family's life during the old days back in Brooklyn. I agreed to a visit. We drove from Long Island to Galloway N.J. Upon arrival we were so warmly greeted and invited to sleep over. The affection was genuine and I quickly understood that the distance to any friend's house such as Mike and Betty could never be too far. Stay strong Betty; for yourself and your loved ones. May Mike watch over you all.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mike the day he Betty and the kids moved onto Coyle Street. I was getting married that day Mike had the moving van stay away from the limo That kindness set the tone for a lifetime friendship between Marie LaTorre (my mom) myself and my entire family. Weddings break up mine did, families move, and we lost beloved family members (dear Mark and my mom.) Our friendship bond stayed strong even though the geography

I had the pleasure of meeting Mike the day he Betty and the kids moved onto Coyle Street. I was getting married that day Mike had the moving van stay away from the limo That kindness set the tone for a lifetime friendship between Marie LaTorre (my mom) myself and my entire family. Weddings break up mine did, families move, and we lost beloved family members (dear Mark and my mom.) Our friendship bond stayed strong even though the geography kept us distant. Through Mikes many trials and tribulations he stayed true to the love for his family, of which I consider myself an honored member. My personal memories will live for all the years Mike will not. He was as kind as my own blood brothers are, and Both he and Betty are treasures. My new Hubby Al only met Mike once but knew how special he was., as is Betty. Mike may the seas be calm, may the fish be plentiful, and may every hit on 14 give you black jack. Condolences from the whole famiglia Love Rosemarie.
