    Sandy, Mikey, Stephanie, Alma, Jim, Paul, Jenn and entire Pimental family. We are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Mike was a fun loving guy. He always had a kind word and something humorous to say. He was a joy to have been able to know him. May he rest in peace. Ron Karen and the entire Binette bunch.

    Sandy, Mike, Stephanie,
    There are a couple of things about Mike, Sr. that I know for sure. He was the type of person who would do anything for anyone. Although we have been out of touch these last few years, I know I could have called on him if I needed something. The second thing I know is that he loved you all so much. He always spoke of you with love and pride in his voice. He will be missed.
    I would like to extend my condolences to all of his family especially to his brother Don and his parents.
    Sadly, Renee Waldron

    Dear Sandy, Stephanie and Mike,

    We were just informed and are so sorry to hear of your loss.

    It has been a while since seeing Mike but we remember how he kept a positive spin when he volunteered to help our sons in Cub Scouts and football. He was always a gleam of bright light and good influence. He will be missed.

    Our prayers are with all of you and his family,
    Larissa & Brian Benoit and children
