Happy Heavenly Birthday "Makosa" you would had been 62 on this Earth. I knew I was missing a bday. Miss talking on the phone with my siblings the ones who actually called me to check on me really meant the world to me. I don't have any more emotional support on this Earth with out my siblings phone calls those I miss the most, hoping you are watching over us from Heaven. Love you, Your "Little Girl". Sister Andonetta

Dear Uncle Michael, Today we honor your memory and remember your life. Thank you for the gifts, jokes, and fond memories. We miss and love you very much! Love, Your Niece, Sophia

Will be lighting a candle for you Makoosa this weekend at our family church in Philly and making five year memorial. We were Three peas in a pod when we were small with Johnny. Love you, your "Little Girl". May your memory be eternal brother.

Today you left the Earth 4 years ago and you are missed. Miss our talks on the phone and the way we made each other smile with a joke. You always had my back when I was a little girl. Life is not the same with all the siblings gone. I pray you watch over me and my family here on Earth and that you are free now in Heaven. Love you "Makusa". From your, "Little Girl".

Thinking of dear Uncle today and honoring his spirit. <3 <3 <3

Light a candle for "My Makoosa". The sibling who always told me, "I love you." Miss you brother and your funny jokes and how you would always call me, "Little Girl". Love you too. See you in Heaven. You are free now!

Uncle Michael, today marks the 3rd anniversary of your passing. We miss you and love you and are keeping you in our hearts forever!! <3

Happy birthday Uncle Michael. You are missed and we are thinking of you!

Today is your birthday in heaven. I hope you are surrounded by all our family and you all having fun in the sprit world. Please watch over me as you always did in life. Love you Makoosa!!! Happy Heavenly Birthday!!! Your "Little Girl"

Today I sent you a candle in memory of you. The most fondest memories I have of you my brother are when we were children. You and Johnny were my play buddies. Today I had a memory of us going with daddy for a car ride and we were talking and joking so much that Dad threw us out of the car and told us to walk home. Your two year Memorial is this Monday. I know you are resting and watching over us and your sprit is whole again, but I do miss talking to you. You always made me laugh. Love you brother.

Brother you would have been 58 yesterday. You are in a better place but of course it would be great to hear your voice and to make me laugh when you call me, " Little Girl". I miss your laugh and your way of always caring for me to the best of your abilities. Say hi to all the brothers there and Mom and Dad. Until we meet again "Magusa". XOXO

On Sunday July 14, 2019. Sophia and I attended a beautiful memorial in your name for your one year anniversary at our family Church in Philadelphia. I prayed that your spirit was honored. We visited the place where you and Johnny are resting. It's such a beautiful cemetery park. I'm so grateful I was able to honor you and grieve properly. We cried a lot but I know you are in a better place and not sick any more. I miss you until we meet again. Love your sister, Andonetta.

In Memorial 40 days this week. May His Memory Be Eternal!
You are at rest dear brother and away from the limitations of your mind and body. God Bless Our Family!

Uncle Michael was a big-hearted man who had a hard time because of his mental illness. Though it was difficult at time, he truly loved his family. I remember him taking me and Aunt Helen out for my birthday. This was when I was an adult, since I did not grow up with him around. He insisted on paying for everything, since I was his niece and it was the one and only time we were ever together for my birthday. He was a hearty laugher and was content when his family was around. I hope he is resting in peace, finally rejoining the infinite universe, without the physical restrictions his body so often gave him. He will be missed and remembered by his family, who loved him!

My brother Michael was my best buddy growing up. It was just us three last babies, Michael, Andonetta, and Johnny growing up together. We were very close during our youth. My brother and I went to school together. He may not have had the best way of expressing himself due to his disabilities but he had HEART. As adults he would always make sure he told me he loved me after our phone calls together or when I would make short visits to Philly. He had the best sense of humor and can make you laugh. He will be missed and I will love him forever until we meet again.
