I remember when I met Mike while attending the same congregation many years ago in Manhattan. I immediately felt comfortable. Mike had a great smile that matched his warm and friendly personality. I look forward to seeing him again in paradise. My sincere condolences to his family.

Querida familia Acevedo hemos estado orado por ustedes, para que esa llama de la fe en la resurrección no se extinga en el corazón de ustedes sino que se haga cada vez más grande de modo que sientan el calor amoroso de nuestro Padre celestial y no se enfríe nunca, nunca su esperanza en la resurrección y por lo tanto volver a ver a Mike en el nuevo mundo. Y Disfrutar su alegria eternamente. Juan 5:28,29. Los queremos mucho. Jehova es grande y la esperanza es segura. Con amor Sebastian y Porfiria Rodriguez

Mike, my baby brother, I'm missing your phone calls, I'm missing your voice. My heart is broken right now, my tears don't stop falling. I didn't think you were going to leave me so soon. I thought I had more time with you, more conversations, more “I BUY”. Your smile and laughing is fleeing me, where are my great big hugs, smothering me, I need them right now, I love you? Looking at your baby picture, you were born smiling, and I know you were smiling even at the end.
I regret not doing more for you my baby brother, you were so caring, so good to me. I am sorry Mike, may you forgive me, I could have been a better big sister, I should have done more for you. My regret.
May Jehovah grant me the opportunity to see you again. Your absence has left a great big whole in my heart, my soul. Even though I have hope, I’m still grieving your loss, my baby brother.
I love you tremendously and forever.
Always your big sis, Evelin

An Ode to My Little Brother Miguel
“My brother as we journey through life, we do not know where our travels will lead us.
We do not know the challenges we will face or the people we will meet, or even the struggles that will stumble us.
However, when we touch the heart of someone we encounter,
When we can bring a smile to someone who is distraught,
When we are the reason, a broken heart is uplifted,
When we overcome a challenge with the strength of our heart,
Then remember as we arrive at the end of our journey,
That those brief moments have demonstrated the grace of God, in our love for others and in our strength to persevere.”
By Anthony Acevedo 12/29/2023
My dearest brother, it is very sad that we never get to know how many lives our actions have touched when we finally meet our end. Your viewing was filled with many you have made laugh, smile, and uplifted. Whose hearts you have brighten by your existence. Death is our most wicked enemy and I look forward to the day it is completely wiped out of our lives.
Revelations 21:4
“And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.”

I remember the first time I met Mike. It was at his mom‘s house and when I walked in he was laughing at something and his laughter was so contagious that he made me laugh and I didn’t even know what was going on. he had a dynamic personality, a warmness that had you thinking that you were friends for years when we only just met. my heart goes out to all that love him and we miss him dearly. But just know that this is temporary in Jehovahs due time, we will see that big smile and wonderful laughter once again.# just around the corner ❤️

Even though it's been many years since we met the Acevedo family, and it's been a while since our paths have crossed, we have very fond memories of Michael.
He was always a happy person, always greeted you with a smile, and a very positive outlook on life. And these traits were definitely assets that were heightened when he learned the truth. We will never forget that happy, helpful and respectful (of our wishes), person that he was when it came to our wedding, as he was our D.J. and did an excellent job at it. He always loved music and sharing his cassette tape mixes with others.
We truly look forward to the time when we will receive Mike back in Jehovah's new world. It will be like when our loved ones return from a trip oversees.
Our love & and deepest sympathies go to the Acevedo family and relatives.
Your spiritual brothers,
David & Martha Cedeño

When my brother was born and I held him in my arms, to me, he was the most beautiful baby boy I had ever seen. He grew up to be kind, generous with the most humorous personality that could make me cry from laughter.
The words, "I love you, Abigail, you are my sister" will be forever with me.
My brother is now resting and no longer suffering and I take comfort in the words of Acts24:15, "And I have hope toward God … that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous."
My baby brother, whom I love, is deeply missed.

You taught me so many life lessons that I will forever keep with me and which passed on to my son Aaron. I’m proud to call you my brother!!!

Dear Acevedo Family,
Please take comfort in knowing that Miguel or Michael as many of us knew him. Was a gentle soul, full of laughter and fun to be around. We will see him again soon when he’s raised to a new world without sickness or sorrow. “Juts a little While Longer” and he will be with us again. Warmest embraces to the family. Ramona Velazquez

I met Michael through his brother Anthony. We also worked together (the 3 of us) at the Cinerama.
The thing I remember most about Mike was that he was always happy and would share that happiness by telling us a joke or a funny story. Even when it was a "Dad joke" it was funny because of the way he would tell it.
I am sorry for our loss. He is free from all pain now and I believe he is in a much better place.

Hello, a loving greeting to all. I am the mother of Miguel or how some would call him, Mike. I had four children, and for me they have been a true treasure. All have been good children to me and I am grateful to my God Jehovah, he who gives us life and sustains us.
But now I would like to talk about my son, Miguel. To start, I'd like to say he had a "gift", he knew how to "love" his fellowman just as Jesus Christ said we had to do. For that reason, he received lots of love and made good friends. He enjoyed making people laugh, but especially his family. He loved preaching and sharing what he had with others.
He was a good brother, a good husband, a good son, a good friend, but above all, a good father because he loved his daughters dearly. He would always talk about them and say, "may Jehovah watch over them".
He became a Jehovah's Witness when he was a young man, and he loved all those who served our God Jehovah.
He never forgot about his friends nor his neighbors, as for him all where very important.
He would often tell me, "mom, if only they would learn the Biblical truth and worship Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ", then they could be in Paradise when Jehovah makes this world into a beautiful Paradise.
Well, I won't write anymore because I would need a whole notebook.
Thank you for the love and friendship that you all gave my son, Miguel.
Mom

Miguel was my best friend growing up. I am deeply saddened by this news of his death. We were truly brothers and he, during our lives, filled mine with happiness and love. He was dependable, very generous, and caring. So many of my childhood, and many adult memories, are thoughts of us enjoying life and doing our best to support each other and provide for our families. I cannot put into words how I feel about Miguel whom I called Michael in our decades relationship. To say he was a friend does not encapsulate the depth of our friendship nor could it ever explain how we affected each other’s lives in such a meaningful way. I look forward to seeing my friend in the future when the true God remembers him and brings him back to life on a paradise earth.

Miguel, Michael, Mike, regardless how you address him, there will never be anyone like him.
When Mike walks into a room he would always make me laugh with his jokes, his laughter, and then we would hug.
When we get together, I would bring him his favorite Italian pastries (Cream Puffs) "Wow" he loved them.
We would talk about everything from religion, movies and Yankees, and we would laugh even though he was in pain and coughing.
Mike was like a shepherd for people. He would talk to everybody, young and old. He would ask them how they were feeling and about their families, and it did not matter how he was feeling (most of the time not good).
Mike was always positive that all the different steps he took would improve his health and would be able to enjoy his life just a little more (without coughing).
I will miss his smile and kind and gentle heart he had, but I know he is with the Lord Jehovah now, and he is not in pain anymore.
Mike, you are a brother to me. I miss you and I will love you always.
Your brother Robert

I will never forget how he treated me when I started going to the Kingdom Hall. He treated me as if I was already his spiritual sister. He was always encouraging and positive.
His zeal for the ministry and love for the truth is one to imitate. Even when he wasn’t feeling his best, he would invite us to get on zoom to preach together. Mike was a real friend. He will greatly be missed.

Michael used to babysit me with my cousins(his daughters) on occasion and those are the best memories I have of him. Michael was the reason I had my first experiences playing Crash the video game with my cousins, watching some of my favorite movies like Aliens and Terminator, and eating chinese food. I remember having fun getting to do and see things I didn't have at home and I will always remember that.

Michael my dear cousin. You will be missed.
You were always a thoughtful, loving, and kind husband, father, brother, son, and cousin.
Whenever I came to town, it didn't matter if I gave you a week's notice or just one day. You were always happy and excited to see and spend time with me and any family members.
I loved that about you. You made people feel good.
It was especially endearing when you would see Mami (before she passed). You loved her company.
When I brought other cousins to visit that you don't even know you came to visit and made them feel like family and right at home. You were funny and made us laugh and feel good.
Even when you were under the weather and things weren't the best, your attitude was positive and happy.
You had a close relationship with your mom and siblings which is wonderful.
I know you are visiting with Mami because you two were close.
RIP

My brother, Mike and I always went to the park together and sat on the bench, drinking coffee, watching people as they walked by and laughing about how some of them dressed. We would have these long discussions about everything: movies, actors, songs, Bible stuff, our lives, and those in our lives.
One day I heard thunder and told Mike: "Hey we need to go, rain is coming." My brother doesn't walk fast, he is very slow. But Mike was so involved in our discussion, he ignored me. Then I heard the thunder again, and told him: "Mike, we really need to go, the rain is coming."
Sure, enough the rain came down in buckets and we tried to get to the building. But as I said, Mike walks slow. We were getting drenched, and I was so mad at him. But then I looked at him, and though he was in a lot of pain, he was forcing himself to go fast because he knew I was annoyed. I couldn't stay mad at him, so I told him not to rush, we were already soaked and took our time walking to the building.
I remember thinking as we walked thru the rain, how much more time did I have with my little brother, a couple of years, months, weeks, days. I knew the day he was no longer with me; my life would be empty. We are like two halves of a shadow, and my life would be changed forever when he would no longer be by my side.
Once at the door of his apartment, Mike always hugged me first, but this time I beat him to the hug. You never know how much time you have with someone, so don't let the opportunity to show you love someone pass you by.
Going forward, I will sit on the park bench and have a cup of coffee often in memory of my brother and the time we spent together. Love you lots my little brother.

Thank you Michael for always radiating happiness. No matter what was going on, every time I saw you, you always had a big smile and something funny to say that would make me laugh and smile. Again, thank you for sharing your love and happiness with the rest of us. I'm blessed with all the happy memories.

My deepest confolences to the family.
When I think of Mike, the first thing I see is his warm and friendly smile. Thats how he would greet you. It was sincere...he would pull you in. I loved his sense of humor and kindness. He also was a spiritual man. That was the most treasured part of him. I look forward in joining his loved ones in welcoming him back (John 5:28,29) in the new world where death will be brought to nothing (1Cor. 15;26). And where we will be able to share new and exciting memories.
May Jehovah's love comfort the family.

Remembering my baby brother Mike.
This is so so hard because I expect him to walk in at any moment, saying, "it's hot, can we open the window" and asking to turn on the ceiling fan.
Always ready to play "I Buy", even if he's in pain and coughing, he always wants to play. He couldn't even feel the cards with his hands, but always wanted to play and be around family who loved him. I'll miss his infectious laugh, his joking around, and always quoting a scripture or two. Sometimes we would talk for hours ... remember the first fruit of the spirit is LOVE ❤️ We need to show love, and Ps 55:22 "Throw your burden on Jehovah, And he will sustain you. "
I know Jehovah helped him, eased his pain and suffering. He's OK now and one day, we will be together again in paradise.
Love you my baby brother.
Your sis, Evelin

My dear baby brother, Miguel, is one of four, the baby of the family. I will miss him tremendously. Regardless of how much pain he was suffering, he tried his best to smile and make others laugh. I would often receive a phone call with him making me laugh, or a silly video that would brighten up my day. Even on his worst days full of pain, he would think of others. The phrase, "He would give you the shirt off his back" iapplies to my baby brother. I love him and miss talking to him.
One of is older sister, Evelin

Best thing is having so many memories with you Mike. We reminisced for a whole hour & only hit the tip of the iceberg. I remember Mike working at the RKO coliseum & I will show up (free of charge) popcorn & candy and I watched every flick at the time. I saw the movie Aliens 9xs! Love you bro!!

When I think of Michael, the first thing comes to mind is his smile and his love for Jehovah and people. He wasn’t a stranger to anyone. He was always encouraging. Soon Michael will experience the fulfillment of Job33:25; Revelations 21:4,5.
It was a privilege to have known Michael. Looking forward to seeing you in paradise.

I remember the 1st time I was reintroduced to Mike, when I was in my teens after he last saw me as a child. We were going to watch a movie with Tony. He said how he hasn't seen me in years, how big I got and that I looked like my mom. And while he was saying that I just thought to myself, wow... He has nice eyes... Then, I heard him laugh and that's what I will remember most. Mike had an amazing laugh that felt like a warm embrace. My aunt Maggie used to tell me about him and how nice he was. Every word was true. R.I.P Mike. Your smile and laugh will forever be in my heart.

My brother, Mike and I going out and just chilling at a restaurant that just opened in our neighborhood. He was always a comedian making me and all those around him laugh.
I am happy we got an opportunity to spend time together, though he was in a lot of physical pain, he always managed to make time for us to get together.

My Dearest Little Brother, Mike:
I will miss the time we spent together and all of the spiritual conversations we shared. Your loss has cut me deeper than anyone will ever know.
However, I take comfort in knowing that you are no longer in pain and safely in Jehovah's care.
