Michael was an angel, who could never tell you his needs or wants but Susan and Arty you where there for him. He’s in heaven now and loves you and appreciates the sacrifices you’ve made for him over the years. You have my prayers, sympathies and love.

I was the teacher assistant in Michael's pre-school class at Robin Hood School.
Michael was a pleasure to work with and contributed greatly to our class and the whole school.

I fondly remenber the love and devotion that Michael shared with his family.

I remember Sue often refered to Michael as her little lamb. I have two grand daughters now and when I call them my little lamb I think of Sue and Michael and smile.

Your family are in my thoughts during this tragic time. I can only hope that at some time you will find peace.
