I’m trying so hard to grieve the loss of my dear sister Bunny. My heart is breaking since I didn’t have the opportunity to attend the Memorial Service with the pastor speaking at MCCAULEY FUNERAL CHAPEL.
I’m finding comfort in knowing you are now at peace. God Bless You!
Love and Prayers,
Janie and MIke
Mike, we heard about Bunny through the class of ’72 Facebook page. We won’t be in Ohio for the memorial service there, but wanted to send you our condolences. It’s been a long time, but BHS classmates are always remembered with fondness. You and your family are in our prayers. ~ Connie & Joe
Dear Papa Mike, Michael II and Sheila, Kristi and Eric, Taylor; Michael III, Cedric and Reese; Michael and Sheila’s extended family:
I’m shocked to hear Bunny’s death and sad that she has to go that soon. No words to express my sympathy to all of you. We’re all crying as no one could replace a beloved wife, a wonderful mother and a compassionate grand- mother.
May her memories keep you united with her as she journeying toward God.
My family and I are totally with you:
“Kenbe fem!” – Courage:

Mike and Family,
Don and I were so shocked and sadden to hear about Bunny’s passing. Please accept our deepest sympathies. I did not find out about the memorial service in time. I am so sorry that I missed it. Please find strength in your family to help you through this difficult time. Love, Patti & Don
Deepest sympathies go out to you and your family Mike. Bunny was such a special person and touched the lives of everyone she met. I am so glad that I went to her Celebration of Life and got to meet her children. You and Bunny should be very proud of them. When I met your daughter, she reminded me so much of Bunny. She has her mothers special gift of kindness. You will always walk hand in hand with Bunny. You and your family will be in my prayers..

Mike, words cannot express the sadness I feel for your and your family’s loss with bunny’s passing. We may be miles apart but never far away in thoughts . To your children, always know that your mom was as good as they come. Never would you find or want to know a kinder it sweeter lady. Love to you all.
Mike and family….Although time and distance has separated us as classmates, my heart was so saddened to hear of Bunny’s death. As many have said, when I remember Bunny, I remember a beautiful, sweet and kind young lady. There was only one special “Bunny” and as much as she will be missed, her loving and caring ways will live on in the lives and hearts of her family. Praying that God will wrap His loving arms around you and give you comfort and peace during this difficult time. Sorry I was not able to attend the Celebration of Life you had for her. I heard it was beautiful.
Mike and family so very sorry for your loss. Hearing the stories you all had to tell, you have many cherished memories to pass on to the little ones. We’ve had such a distance between us, but you both have always been in my heart and always will be. It was good to meet your children.. what wonderful children you both raised. Prayers continue for the entire family. Keep in touch. Susie
Mike and family,
I feel saddened of the new’s of Bunny passing. I had alway’s thought of how she was such a sweet girl. I will never forget the good time’s we had at BHS.
I remember meeting you Mike, at Blaine grade school. You had a great personality, and I was happy to see you two get together. God Bless you and your family. I,do regret not being able to see you here in the valley. You are in my thought’s and prayer’s!

Dear Mike and wonderful family…….Bunny was always an ‘Angel on Earth’. She has now answered a call to be an ‘Angel in Heaven’. It is rare that we are blessed with such a genuine, pure presence as we have shared with this lovely lady! Although our hearts ache for your absence, we are all filled with so many wonderful memories of a true gem of a lady who always greated us with a smile and kind words of friendship! Our lives take us to many different corners to fulfull our destinies. Although Illinois is many multiple hours from Bridgeport, our memories may ‘flip through the pages’ of our yearbooks. There we will always remember Bunny! This may be done by looking at beautiful billowing clouds on a sunny day; the warmth of her hug through a spring or summer rain; the brilliance of the stars at night as we call her name and the stars respond; the soft falling snow and many other reminders of her pure love that will live on through your loving family. You are her legacy and her heart will beat strong in yours as you continue to share the love that she has taught each of you. Listen to her voice in your heart and let her dreams continue through your many acts of kindness. I relish my memories of Bunny and how she has touched so many people and will continue to do so through her family.
Sorry for your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.
Dear Mike:
Farrukh and I were very sad when we told of your wife’s passing. Our heartfelt sympathy is extended to you and your family.
With Our Deepest Sympathy,
Farrukh and Kathy Siddiqui
Awh MIke I’m so, so sorry for your loss. Bunny was such a beautiful person. I’ll never forget her. an I’m very sorry for your loss Mike. Your family will be our thoughts an prayers.God bless you an your family.
To Mike, your three children, and all of your family. I was glad to have the chance to attend the Celebration of Life for your wife Bunny this past Saturday in Bridgeport. Home as you fondly called it. I enjoyed hearing the stories of Bunny and your family. I never realized what a sweet voice she had singing. I enjoyed the songs you played. May you know your classmates of Bridgeport High School, the class of 1972 will always have sweet memories of our homecoming queen, Bunny and our Mr. Football, Mike. As so many have said you two had a great love for each other and your family. She will always be with you in your heart. May God comfort you and your family as you grieve for the one you love,Bunny.
