My dad was my friend, and my #1 fan. He was at every practice for every sporting event, and never ever missed a game. Everyone would tell me stories of how all he would talk about was stories of his kids. I’m honored to have him as my father, and I’m proud to call him my dad. Thank you everyone for reaching out, please tell me all the stories, we would be honored to hear them about Bulldog Mike! Rest in Peace dad, until we meet again.
We were honored to finally meet a family member of our dad Angelo Galassi. There have been many years we have wanted to reach out and connect with someone from that side. We were so surprised that Uncle Michael was actually just right down the road from us at Desert Princess for his work meetings for several years. That was our first meet. Uncle Michael had many stories to share some sad some happy but his heart was family first. When he said I've never forgotten you girls and always wondered what happened to us it broke my heart. The few times we got together we had a strong connection as of I've been around him all my life I just wish we had more. He always talked about his beautiful wife kids and grandkids so that we felt like we were part of the family too. I am forever grateful God brought us together in this life.. we will all be together in heaven one day too. ❤️
I met Mike as a young boxer. He really believed in and supported the sport of boxing with his time and commitment. His passing leaves a large hole in the Cleveland boxing community. I will really miss him.
