I just discovered today (1/20/26) that Mike passed back in 2023. I wanted to reach out to him today to tell him that I often thought of him this past fall as his favorite NY Giants football team became very competitive, including beating my local Phila Eagles. I had many enjoyable rounds of golf with Mike as well as used his reinsurance expertise  at 2 of  large health insurance companies (1978-1993) where I served as CFO. I worked in NYC for 15 years and remember Mike telling me the story how he escaped lower Manhattan after the 9/11/2001 tragic bombing of the World Trade Center. Thank God Mike escaped that day so he could share his talents and his wonderful personality with  his family and so many others over the next 20+ years. I'll never forget Mike.

Seems like just yesterday we were hanging out as fraternity brothers.  I have fond memories of Mike’s laughter and only wish we could have had some time together in later years.  Camille, so sorry on the loss of your friend, partner, husband and father to your children.

Mike hired me early in my career and we worked closely together, as a team, for the next 8 years. I learned a lot about hard work, professionalism, loyalty, honor and dignity.  Mike made a positive and lasting impression on those that spent time with him.  I reflect fondly of those years with admiration and appreciation.  I’ll carry those memories forward with gratitude. Mike, thanks again for everything you did for me.  

Mike was one of the first people I met at “The Creek” and he was integral in bringing me into the Quota Golf Group. He and I played as partners in the Member/Member tournament a few years ago. Our mutual east coast connection only brought us closer and we chatted often about the Philly area. Mike was our group leader and we will not be the same without him. This photo was from one of our Palm Springs golf trips. Mike - I miss you already and I hope you have more “6 net 5’s” in Heaven than you can handle. 

So many fond memories.  I've known Michael since we were 8 years old.  Lived in Manhasset.  We were in the Boy Scouts together.  Went to Philmont and borrowed drinks from the neighbor's refrigerator in their garage.  As boys, we were mischievous.  Through the years, even though we moved around, we always stayed in contact keeping each other up-to-date on each other's family and calling each other on our birthdays.  My wife, Cathy, first met Michael when she was 24 at the JFK Airport in New York.  Michael did not know Cathy and Cathy did not know Michael.  Cathy heard a voice over the loudspeaker at the airport say Cathy Thompson, Mike is here to pick you up.  Well, they met and Michael treated Cathy to her first shrimp cocktail while they waited for my plane to arrive.
Mike will always hold a special place in both of our hearts.  He is an all-round good, kindhearted person. Strong in his faith in God while being true to himself and others.
We will miss you Michael, but we will keep you in our hearts and prayers until we meet again.

I met Mike while living in the dorms at Pace. When I pledged to the DTP fraternity, Mike was my big brother. I will remember all the wild parties at the frat house in Astoria. While Mike and I really did not keep in contact, I recall that Camille was from the same city in NJ where I grew up. My condolences to Camille and the rest of the family.

So sorry to hear of Mike’s passing.  We spent many parties together at DTP house in Astoria.  My deepest condolences to Camille and family.

Michael DiLoreto, “TOTAL CLASS ACT” through and through.  Can’t be said about many, rare few actually live it.  Happy to have been blessed by just knowing him.  Particular thanks for your graciousness and generosity by allowing your home to serve as “Party Central” for your Bobbitt Drive neighbors.  You so warmly welcomed us to your beautiful home and Camille so lavishly spoiled us with her incredible bounties-you provided years of treasured memories for all of us.  Still trying to grasp the concept of your loss-you are beloved and will be greatly missed but never forgotten. May you Rest In Peace in the loving arms of Your Lord.

Michael Di Loreto, well known & loved by the Prestonwood Country Club Quota Golf Group as "Dilo", on a evening out on the town having dinner & libations. Dilo will always be remembered with integrity, a positive spirit & truly competitive. We are very blessed to have spent many years with Dilo playing golf, traveling the world, 
breaking bread & thoroughly enjoying our genuine friendship. Dilo will be tremendously missed, although live in our hearts always. 

Camille and family, 

I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Mike.  I've enjoyed working with him over the past several years.  He was always a joy to be around and a very likeable person.  (And very knowledgeable on all things E&O.)

I pray for peace & comfort to each of you during this difficult time. 
 
Sincerely, 

Holly Howard

I am so very glad to have visited with you and Mike last week. Mike was incredible to work with, but even better to have as a friend. I also treasure my friendship with you and the chats we had at IBD. 

Hold tight to your memories, for in them Mike is ever present.

 Good bless you and your family and may your faith uphold you now and always.

Marcia and I are deeply saddened by this news. I spoke with Mike a few weeks ago, and he was optimistic about his progress, so this is just such sad news. In the few years I have known Mike through our golf group, he was always energetic, loaded with common sense on every issue, passionate about his beliefs, and respectful of your opinion, even if it came with a wry smile. Mike and I became breakfast buddies, meeting every Saturday morning before our Quota golf tee times. I can hear him now- “two eggs over medium, hash browns, bacon and a well done English muffin”.  I will miss having breakfast with my buddy. Our prayers go to Camille and family. 

My deepest sympathies to Camille DiLoreto and her family.  I have many memories of Michael DiLoreto.  Michael was a dedicated husband, father and grandfather.  Michael was man who valued family and was committed to his wife and family.  Michael was an excellent husband, father and provider.  A man of value and a man who stood by his word and commitments.

A favorite memory etched in my mind of Michael was when we went bike riding.  It was a hot summer night in the City of Glen Cove, Long Island.  We began pedaling at the same cadence, but then Michael biked on.  I tried to keep up and compete; ever striving to catch up.  We were exhausted at the end of our ride.  Michael was always moving forward, never letting circumstances deter him from his goal.

On Laurie Place, Glen Cove, Long Island , Michael had an office in their home.  I visited Michael and Camille often, sometimes to babysit my niece and nephew and many times for family gatherings.  The DiLoreto home was the place to be at all holidays.  I remember to this day, and it is ever so clear in my mind's eye a plaque on Michael's desk that read, "PERSIST".  And that he did in life.  That was 50 years ago.  Michael, you made an impact on my life.  May your family be warmed by your memory and may God keep you.  Your Sister-In-Law, Maria 

When I married his only daughter, he treated me like his own son. When I needed a job, he offered me one. When I chunked a golf ball into the woods, he helped me find it.

Mike DiLoreto was always there for me: with an answer to a question, a solution to a problem, and advice when needed — and sometimes when it wasn’t.

When Mike and I dined together, we ate well and drank better. Sometimes there were cigars. Usually there were stories. Always there was laughter.

I loved Mike for his work ethic and his unfailing devotion to God, his wife and his children and grandchildren.

He’ll always be with them — and with me.
