Heavenly birthday mate

Happy heavenly birthday mate

Birthday greeting old pal

All our love from Sean, James, Vivienne and family. X

Michael may be gone but he will never be forgotten. I remember the day mum brought Michael home from the hospital as if it was yesterday. He was a gorgeous baby, who never cried always smiled. He went on to become a lovely generous man, who worked extremely hard for all those he loved. Days can be difficult, especially when I’m waiting for Michael’s text to ask my prediction for the Arsenal game, I was usually wrong and he was usually right, sorry to say that remains the same. I think about Michael every day and I don’t think the sadness of his loss will ever leave me. I know that Michael found great love and happiness with his lovely wife and daughter, Kate and Catherine, it was a love that didn’t need to be talked about it it was just there. Leo, Liam and I are thinking of all who knew and loved Michael today, especially Kate and Catherine, much love to you both, Margaret xxx

Dearest Mike, don’t know where to begin, can’t believe a year since you left us. So many special memories. Generous to a fault, with a heart of gold, you made every experience richer. You left a mark dear Mike and will never be forgotten. Miss your laugh and your twinkly blue eyes - so much light and life in them, can’t believe you are gone. Thinking of Kate and Cat today especially. Love Marie xxx ❤️ ⭐️ ❤️ ⭐️

Uncle Michael. Life will never be the same without you. The suns shines a little less each day, love you always. X

Remembering your sparkling eyes, showing how bright and clear your soul was. A loved and respected man. Highly regarded by our family.

Thinking of you Kate & Catherine at this time, it's hard to be it's a year ago today since Micheal left us, great character in every way, he will ne missed. Prayers & thoughts are with u all at this time.

Dearest Micky so sad to hear of your passing. So kind, generous and wise. Happy memories of being at yours and the larks we got up to in our youth. The perfect day was going over to see the Arsenal play and then on to Epping for horse riding. Although we lost touch memories will always remain. The song remains the same . . . and you taught me that Identity is not wrapped up in the Barn you were born in and I have carried that with me always . . . Goodnight sweetheart.

Condolences to Kate and Catherine and much love and thoughts to Annette, Ray and Margaret.

So sorry to hear of Micks loss, he was a true friend as we went through life in our early days and into adulthood.

Lost touch in recent years but the memories live on

So saddened to hear of your passing, dear Mickey. You are were a fine and valued friend. So sorry our life's path steered us apart. My sincere condolences to your family and all those that loved you.

Hard to believe this lovely energy, this force for good has gone. Met before our Lady and St Joe's - the old building - and palled around for years -in and out of each other's houses taking on and beating allcomers on those cinder pitches at London Fields - brightened every room he was in - never took too much seriously (apart from important stuff like Family and Friends and Arsenal). My mum (god rest her soul) always loved the story of Micky missing school cos floodlights weren't allowed on during some strike. This meant early kick off - he spotted by the Head on telly standing in his usual place on the Northbank. The Mulligans - Big Tom, Tom, Sean, Fionnuala, Una and Me send their condolences - sorry for your troubles. The world will miss you Micky but not as much as us.

The kindest Gent, none like him.

Always there with a smile and a helping hand, a big guy with an enormous heart, hilarious and wise in equal measure, you’ve left such an imprint of love and laughter on me and my family, and it is heartbreaking to know we’ll never see you again on this earth. We’ll never forget you lovely Mike, they broke the mould when they made you, you are forever in our hearts and we will treasure the many wonderful memories we have of you like fine jewels. Sleep well, dearest Mike, love always, Marie, Doreen and Russ xx ❤️💔⭐️

Condolences to Kate and Catherine. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May my lovely cousin Michal Rest in Peace.
