When students are such a large part of your life I find in unimaginable that I am here on earth and they aren't. I have many fond memories Michael even though sometimes he wasn't happy with me. May you find peace knowing that so many people enjoyed his smile and antics. He will forever be a part of my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong family and talk to one other another to get the strength to go forward after such a great loss.

Dearest Pancho & Nancy,
With great shock we learned of Michael's passing. In our humaness we can find no answers. But great hope does exist, for our God has a master plan and His desire is that all will be saved. Let this and all the tribulations in our life be the reason that we turn to His Word for our inspiration, guidance and unending joy. It is His promise to those who earnestly seek Him.
Our sincerest thoughts and prayers wil be with you during this time and may His peace rest upon you all.
