Mr.Mastry was my Best Man at my wedding 4/4/81 when I married his son Michael Dale. He was so proud of our son Michael Neil "He's going places -you don't have to worry about that one"
He taught me alot about stocks and how to handle money,he would always sit us done around the kitchen table and feed us - He was the most kind and caring person. He just wanted the best for his boys and his grandchildren. He was steadfast and very successful in all his businesses and every thing was for the family. He was a proud and humble in what he did in the African American community in South St Petersburg - Everyone was greeted with " My Friend what can I do for you or where have you been?
He would teach people how to throw a cast net - and if anyone left the shop not buying something - he would follow them out and find why and usually got them to come back in buy something.

I grew up in the same house with my Uncle Mike before he was married. this was in 1945 until he got married and moved away. We lived in my grandmothers home with my mother and sister as my father had died. Also in the house was my Grandfather and Mike's brothers Jimmy and Edward and his sisters Marguerite and Juliet, when she visited, and finally my mother Ann. Uncle Mike was a very caring man who always had a smile and an upbeat attitude. He would always give my sister and I a coin as he walked in the door. He also was a hard working man who taught me many lessons including how to fish. Mike would regularly go into our garage and grind the lamb that his mother used in her Lebanese cooking on a huge electric grinder. The entire family would then have a big meal with a large part of the large family present. I was always very proud of Uncle Mike and thankful for the many things I learned from him in my early years. I am sure he will be greatly missed by the extended family.
