Dearest Mickey. There is no other who could take your place. A very special woman indeed from wife to mother, grandmother, caregiver, mother-in-law and friend. You will be missed by so many. You loved deeply and were deeply loved. Thoughts are with those of us left behind. You are safe and at peace now with your family who has gone before you. May you rest eternally till we all meet again.

Mickey was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and a great caregiver for children. Eric and Casey were there when they were little. She was always great with them. She loved the kids. She is at peace now away from pain and suffering. She is catching up with Amos and Steve on all her stories. I bet she is nagging them already... She will be greatly missed by all. Keep an eye for the shining star in the sky.. she is now an angel to watch over all of us. Thoughts and prayers to all of you. Elaine, Seth, Eric and Casey

The world has lost a very loving and caring person, and I will miss a great friend. Mick took care of so many children in Higganum, like a second grandma to all. Amos and Steve have finally met you in heaven and are glad you are all together again. Jim, so very sorry for your loss.

Mickie was one of a kind. Her eyes would light up and she would break out in the biggest smiles when she was with or talking about her grandchildren. She loved those kids with all her heart. The most recent bright light in her life was her 3 year old great grand daughter Alexia whom she was So proud of. I am glad she is at last at peace and with her
husband Amos, and son Steve. I will miss her dearly.

I've known Mickey my whole life, she used to babysit me and was very close friends with my mother, Sharon (shea) Higgins and my father Doug. It was shocking learning of her passing but i know she is now with Amos , steve, and now mom too, it's never easy losing a loved one but it is comforting to know that she is now with her husband and son again and has not gone alone she has joined the many angels in the sky looking over us all. R.I.P. Mick, you will be very much missed here but i know Amos and Steve have waited a long time to be reunited with you. I hope you have found your eternal peace,love and your forever happiness God bless you and all who knew,loved, and will forever miss you.I'm very sorry for your loss Jim and know what a sad time it is right now and hope you have some comfort knowing she is back with dad(Amos)and she will never be alone again and now you have one more angel watching over you.
