I’m so sorry. I remember my mom taking us to visit him in Rhode Island. She and Mickey were always close.
Your war is over now, Mickey. Enjoy the peace.
I miss our talks already. You fought so bravely. We all miss you.

Rest In Peace.
To the Finn family, my deepest sympathy,
I went through school with Mickey in the 1960′s in providence at hope high.we had a nice time hanging out….It saddens me to see people I grew up with in the newspapers passing away. My deepest sympathies to his family.
My deepest sympathy for the loos of my cousin Mickey. I am just now finding out of his death and very surprised. We were close until he went in the military and when he got out, I went into the military, and so with my 26 years in the military, most of it stationed overseas, we lost contact. His Mom was my Grandmother’s sister and as youngsters, I was 2 years younger, we used to visit weekends. Sorry for his loss.
