I can not imagine losing a child -saying "I'm sorry for your loss" doesnt even seem like enough, but I TRULY am sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you and I will continue to pray that somehow you are able to find peace.

No words can ever adequately express the grief a parent feels when loosing a child. Michael was a handsome, strong young man with unending enthusiasm, and talent. No matter the time or circumstance of his too short life, Mchael always, dearly loved his wonderful mother. His sudden death is a double tragedy visited upon both him and Georgia. Our family feels your pain and profound loss and with our prayers and deepest condolences we send our heartfelt sympathy to the entire family .
