Mike was a hard worker who held many occupations throughout his life including machinist, oysterman, carpenter, and bus driver. A veteran of the U.S. Army’s 1st Cavalry Division, Mike served honorably in Vietnam, earning several medals for his service to his country.
Outside of work, Mike was a talented woodworker and enjoyed gardening and crossword puzzles. He was known across Eastern Long Island for his generous and gregarious nature and his willingness to lend a hand to those in need.
