Sharon,Our deepest sympathies to you and your family. Mike was an amazing man who touched the lives of everyone he met. "I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories." —Leo Buscaglia
Dearest Sharon and family. Loss of a great one. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Mike was one of our model railroading regulars. His passion for the hobby and his attention to detail inspired the rest of us to push ourselves to new limits. He has left is far too early. We will miss him greatly! I can only hope that you, his family, may get some degree of comfort knowing that he has left each of us better for having known him.”
Our family's heartfelt condolences to the family for the lost of our friend Mike.

Our sincere condolences and sympathy to Rose, Tom and Sharon and the Sonosky family. It is most difficult to see the passing of my friend Mike. I remember the great times at his family cottage (especially of the launching or not of his speed boat). Mike, we certainly had some fun times with our pals Gen and Gordy. Pam and I are most grateful Mike was gracious enough to accept our invitation to be an usher at our wedding. Thank you Mike for the time you shared with us.Peace be with you Mike and your family.
Thank you to Whoever had the sensitivity to correct the obit and acknowledge Mike’s children from his second marriage properly.
Condolences to all who knew and liked Mike. FYI: Mike's two incredibly wonderful children Louisa and Michael-Warren are Mike's children from his second marriage, not part of his "extended" family.
