Farewell Mike. You have always been a great older brother. We had fun and learned life lessons boxing in the basement with hockey gloves, stick ball in the driveway breaking shingles on the house, hockey in the back yard taking slapshots at a neighbor goalie, softball in St. Brendan’s school yard, and trips to the Dublin Pub on Long Island, to name a few. When I think of you I hear Beatles, Beach Boys, and the sound track of American Graffiti, I see Navy football, Corvettes, and the many family gatherings at your home. I will remember a role model driven in career; responsible to family, friends, and colleagues; and successful through hard work and a positive attitude. I will miss our many life discussions such as colleges selection, careers opportunities, financial strategies, ideas to address work situations, and lastly retirement and the many aspects to consider and plan for. You had always been there as the GREAT OLDER BROTHER. It is very unfortunate that we often do not realize what we have until it is no longer there. Mike – YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED, but I know that you are in a better place and that we will all be together again someday. FAREWELL.

I consider myself a very lucky man to have known Mike for 22 years. He was such a huge part of my life and my family’s life. On a business and personal level Mike was always there for us. Mike hired me 22 years ago and it seems that every day he would help in some way to help me grow my business and personal life. He always gave me advice and I truly feel that I would never have the life I have today if wasn’t for Mike and I would always remind him of that, especially in the last year. If he was busy in the middle of ten different things he would drop what he was doing to help me. He always had the right answers and a unique way of explaining things. A lot of cursing but he always got his point across, LOL. I will always remember everything he did for me and my family for my entire life. I just wish I had one more chance to see him and talk to him. We are so sad to have lost such a wonderful friend but Mike will always be a part on my life.

I had the privilege of being Mike's classmate USNA 79. He had such a positive impact on everyone he met. His outgoing 'larger than life' personality truly made a difference in all his endeavors. His accomplishments are remarkable a testament to his family legacy as a truly 'great American.' I always looked forward to seeing him at USNA Alumni reunions ... sharing our stories ... growing up in NY and our mutual experiences in the Navy. My condolences to a wonderful family.

My deepest condolences to your family! I'm so sorry for your loss, Mike was a Great Man. I remember my father talking about Mike when I was a kid. I'd never heard my dad speak about anyone with so much respect and admiration. After joining Prudential, I soon realized and understood why my dad respected Mike so much. He was genuine, honest, and incredibly smart. He was loyal to his people, he guided us and protected us. I'll always hold Mike as the perfect example of what a leader should be. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Mike was a dedicated and wonderful shipmate; friend and family man. Although we were classmates at the Naval Academy, the first time I met Mike was on our initial sea tour onboard USS Butte where we served together and were roommates for nearly three years. Mike was by far the hardest working and most devoted junior officer on the ship. His positive attitude and leadership abilities were displayed daily, he was a thorough professional who always took care of his sailors. As fate would have it we served together again while on recruiting duty until Mike transitioned to his civilian job at Prudential. My family and I remained friends of Mike and Anne Marie ever since. I was privileged to watch them raise a beautiful and loving family during our annual summer visits to NJ. Mike was a proud father who did everything in his power to provide for his wife and family. Like his sailors Mike was always there for me, providing me with sound financial advice and unwavering support and friendship over the past forty years. He will never be forgotten by anyone who ever knew him. I will miss him greatly.

Anne Marie and Family,
What a fantastic guy. We met you guys at a few USNA reunions – you would not remember me --- but, as a former hardcore ‘bum’ from Long Island --- I connected well with Mike ,,, and the “Jersey guys” during our Plebe summer. He was in 9th Co. – I was in 10th --- we worked a lot together to make it through that 6-month ordeal.
Mike had a great smile, and a wonderful positive out look --- he helped me. He was one of those reliable pillars that I could always trust. Unselfish – big hearted – just a class act dude.
It was an honor to be friends with him.
Best always,
Charlie Mark

My most sincere condolences to the entire family. Bernie, his sister, is a very dear friend and colleague who adored her brother so much that we all came to feel we knew him even though we never actually met. The greatness of this man was evident in the dignity and courage he showed in his battle with his final illness. May God bless his wife, children and the entire family he adored and cared for so much. His life is a model for all to emulate.

Mike and I first met in 1987 while I was a junior at Rutgers. He eventually hired me in 1988 and since that time he has been a big brother, mentor and like family to myself, my wife Lori and our three kids. We are saddened by his loss and have had 33 years of memories with him and Ann and the kids! I will forever cherish the Saturday morning coffee runs and all the work him and I did together because “ it’s crazy to spend the money when we can shovel 30 yards of mulch ourselves!!” Mike was the ultimate go to guy who gave me advice on everything including finances, my career, our home and how to be successful in life. The thing I admired the most was his overwhelming love for his wife. Many times when we were together he would always check in with a quick “getting coffee with Mike honey.... you want anything from Dunkin? When I spoke to him 2 weeks ago for the last rime I reminded him how he provided for his entire family and he will be remembered through all of their success. A true Man in every sense of the word and we will miss him dearly. Love you Mike and until we meet again keep an eye on us from the better place you are in!!

My relationship with Mike began over 20 years ago when he became my Manager and I was one of his Reps. In the past 10 years our connection grew to be so much more. Mike brought out the best of me and he knew what I needed to advance my career and my personal development. He challenged me by providing me with opportunities that required more education and some greater commitment. It was never a one time gift. The end result was that it would always make me better...
My family and I will always be indebted to Mike. He was so generous and humble but he would never see it that way. He would say “Stop, I didn’t do anything” or “ No thanks needed- just do a great job”. Our calls or texts during the last 10 years became more frequent however now they were more personal. We visited each other and he continued to nurture my spirit. When Mike talked, you listened because you were about learn.
When Mike was about to retire I once asked him what are you going to with your time. He replied “I am gonna sit in that chair and watch the birds”. It may have been more colorful than that but the sentiment is true.
My friendship with Mike is something that will live forever. I will think of you often my friend when I see the birds.
Eternally Grateful,
Doug

We all shared so many good times together, whether it was at Pru conferences or BBQ’s in your backyard. I will miss the conversations we would have reminiscing about the old days in The Metchuen Office, or the next home renovation he was planning. Mike helped so many people and was truly loved by all.
I will miss you buddy, Rest In Peace.

Mike was a very special person in my life. From the time we first met, he unselfishly helped my family and I, every step of the way. From pushing me to heights that seemed unattainable when I first started with Prudential, to helping cut down trees in my backyard ( he ended up with stitches then) and so much in between. Mike was not only my advocate and mentor in business but It went beyond that. I valued the time we would talk about our families, and what is important, and of course, our stocks, and the stock markets.
Mike had a way of zeroing in on what would incentivize his agents. In my case it was dinner at The Manor in West Orange when I hit a certain sales goal. Although, he may have been more excited about that than me since he polished off about 14 lobsters.
Most importantly, Mike had a way of making me see what was really important in life, and always encouraged me to be with my children at their functions when they had them. He’d tell me “There was always other time for work, but those we would not get back.” I owe so much to Mike - if it were not for him my family and I would not have most of the things we have today.
I miss him very much, and cannot even imagine the pain that you, his family are going through right now. I hope that you can take solace in the fact that Mike helped many of us in these same ways and that he did this because of the compassion in his heart. He was the kind of man who helped his fellow man, not expecting anything in return.
Our lives have truly been enriched just by knowing him, and I thank you for sharing him with us.
With my deepest condolences,
Robert Brown

When Mike was commissioned as an officer in the United State Navy, the commission began with the phrase: "Know ye that, reposing special trust and confidence in the patriotism, valor, fidelity and abilities of Michael P. Marciano . . ." the Secretary of the Navy appointed him an Ensign in the United States Navy.
These same words would have been used on each of his promotions. They are not empty words. Mike lived up to them, and more, long after he left the Navy. We, his classmates, are heartbroken at his death, reflect fondly and even lovingly on our memories of him and are grateful that his long struggle is over. May he rest in peace.

Our paths never crossed again after high school but I vividly remember Mike as an outstanding person of honor. It did not surprise me that he was awarded entry into the US Naval Academy as it was a perfect fit for the way he carried himself physically and the way he interacted with all the others in our Clipper brotherhood.
I'd like to extend my deepest sympathies to all the members of the Marciano family. May Mike's soul rest in peace.

Most of my memories are based around other people. So when I was fortunate to have met Michael on my own I couldn't have been more pleased to say that he was the genuinely nice guy that everyone had always exclaimed him to be. My heart is truly saddened for his family, for the loss of a loved one is never easy. May they find comfort in the knowledge that Michael will suffer no more, and that he will now be watching over them till they too return home to be with our heavenly father. R.I.P. Michael
