Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of Michael. My recollections of the Potter family go far back to the Redford Avenue days, and to the many significant, and less significant events which punctuated those days. Mike was a regular visitor to our home in those early days, and we shared our connection with St. Clare School and Church. (If my memory serves me well, Mrs. Potter won "the five hundred" in the early 1960's. This was the top prize of the St. Clare booster club, where local parishioners bought one dollar chances.)
Yes, the lives of the Iorio and Potter families did intertwine through the happy and sad events in those years. My brother Paul Iorio and Michael became lifetime friends, and they remained close throughout Michael's lifetime. Michael was best man at my brother's wedding and he did a wonderful job, delivering a heartfelt toast on that occasion.
We are thankful for the light which Michael, and the Potter family, brought to our lives. Our thoughts are with all of you who loved Michael.
