Such wonderful memories growing up and going to school right across the street from you. Mr. Ed was always such a help to the "youth" in fundraising and doing odd jobs. He will be missed. I love you, Mrs. Mickey.

Mickey and family: I am so sorry to hear about the death of your husband. Although your grief is hard, wrap yourself in the warm memories that you and your husband shared as well as the hope the Bible gives of the pains of death being swallowed up forever.
