Michael Thomas Lacey

It is difficult to say the least, that we have all gained another angel. Michael Lacey, age 61, has passed and taken his place alongside all our loved ones who have left us. Michael Lacey, was loved by so many people, brought smiles to so many faces, touched so many hearts, and brightened so many souls.

Michael, leaves behind his Husband Robert Brown, two Daughter's Kaitlyn Weir, Bridget Gajadar and husbands, mother of his children Anne Maiello-Lacey, sister's Kim Barthelmess and family, Mindy Heyliger and family, Brother-in-Law Steve Jacobson and family, granddaughter Aubrey Weir, and so many more including his fur babies Brinkley, Huntley, and Lady Bug.

Michael was a kid at heart, he had a sparkle in his eye, and a very special presence. He had a zest for life that not many do. He made everything an adventure and a big deal. So, although this is a hard time for a lot of people, we ask that you celebrate for him and embrace life as he would.

And as we continue to walk through our days moving forward, please always remember,

"You've got a friend in me".

O most holy apostle, Saint Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus,

the Church honoureth and invoketh thee universally, as the patron of hopeless cases,

and of things almost despaired of.

Pray for me, who am so miserable. Make use, I implore thee, of that particular

privilege accorded to thee, to bring visible and speedy help where help was almost

despaired of.

Come to mine assistance in this great need, that I may receive

the consolation and succor of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations,

and sufferings, particularly (here make your request) and that I may praise

God with thee and all the elect throughout eternity.

I promise thee, O blessed Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favour,

to always honor thee as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully

encourage devotion to thee.

Amen.
