Condolence: Oh my goodness! How saddened we were to hear of Mike's recent struggles and his passing. He was one of the kindest men it's ever been our privilege to know. His genuine love for people was unmistakable and he always made you feel better. When a helping hand was needed, Mike was always there. We treasure the time we were able to spend with him, along with Andrew, at EFV8 meets. Our sincerest condolences and prayers for his family. We were blessed to call Mike our friend. Dennis & Janis Carpenter

Condolence: I was quite surprised to hear of Mike's passing. He and I had recently within the past 2 years began communicating again, and it is said that he is no longer with us. On the other hand I know that he was somewhat frail in some ways that he had spoken to me about several times, and perhaps it is best that he be with God in heaven, rather than having to suffer pain on Earth? Mike had mentioned especially his grandson Andrew who he had said was living with him, and who had taken over the handling of the Suffield property which was a relief to him. I also want to relay my condolences to Larry who I worked with at Triangle Pacific in the early 1970s who was very close to him. Praise be to God! May Mike's family, and friends know that he had a remarkable life and as a friend of his and a student of his mentoring he will be personally missed by me and well as you!

Condolence: Mike, Mikey, Uncle Mike was a true friend of mine. He gave me so much guidance from when I started in business 35 years ago. He gave a 23 year old kid credit to buy lumber. We had the kind of friendship most people will never experience. I will always cherish our lively conversations, jokes and eating breakfest or lunch. He always paid. Mike had a positive impact on my life. Peace be with the Laureno family at this time.

Condolence: Our condolences to Mike's family. Have fond memories of Mike at breakfast at Harvest Cafe.

Condolence: I was very saddened to hear of Mike's passing. I knew Mike for many years as a member of the Early Ford V-8 Club. I always looked forward to seeing him at a National Meet or at Hershey. He was a gentleman and he will be missed. My condolences to his family
