My voice joins with many others across the state expressing sympathy to the family of Mickey Furfari. I met him late in his tenure at the Dominion Post and he was my first boss there. Like many others, I learned a lot from him and continued to enjoy conversations with him whenever our paths crossed. He will be greatly missed. Rest in peace.
I just hear of Micky's death and wanted to say a thank you for having met him. He and my father-in-law are walking in Heaven! Whenever I saw him I just mentioned who I was and we would have a great conversation. I loved reading his column in Heritage that were always available for the residents. He certainly was an icon in Morgantown and his opinion was one I respected. Always so warm and caring.... he will be missed. Hugs and Prayers for his children.
So sorry for your loss. Prayers for the family. Mickey will besorely missed by sports fans everywhere, as well as members of the St. John's faith community.
There are so many things I loved about Mickey.
Passion and intensity are at the top the list.
He had a very strong belief in the way things ought to be and didn't hesitate to share those beliefs with others. I admired everything about him.
He was always very appreciative of any little thing anyone would do for him.
I miss him.
Praying for comfort and peace for you all.
