I havent seen him in over 22 years.I did not even know that he passed My father and I spent a winter with him at Tampa Downs. Jimmy was one the nicest and funniest men I ever knew.  One of the best  memories I have of Jimmy is a story he told me. A story  about  how him and another person shipped 10 horses in a 8 horse trailer. We laughed so hard for so long that I had a stomach ache for 3 days. I hope he is resting in peace. I loved that man!!!!    Joseph Russo

I wanted to express my sincerest condolences and blessings to the Michael family.    As one of Danny’s closest friends for the last 25 years I was lucky enough to know and interact with Mr. Michael.    I will always remember him as a very strong head of family and successful  businessman.    I saw him mold and help create the outstanding person and man that Danny is today.    I recall Danny speaking to his father when we were in college on a weekly basis.   They always spoke of Danny’s accomplishments and path, sports “the numbers :)”, family, fishing, and cooking.    I know that is was always very important for Danny to live up to his fathers high standards, and that he did.   91 years and a tremendous legacy to his wife, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.   I hope that we will all reflect on Mr. Michaels  passing, celebrate his life, but mostly continue his high standards  in our own and families lives.   May peace be with the Michael family, especially with his wife Jackie, and my best friend Danny.   

With love and blessings, 

Patrick M Foley
