Michael and I met on Facebook through a friend. We hit it off right away and shared stories of our lives, our families, our children. Although we had only talked on the phone and never met in person, I know he genuinely cared about me, about my son, about our well being. He was such a clever, funny man, but it wasn't just about the humor, he encouraged me through difficult times and made me laugh when all I wanted to do was cry. A few times, when I was at my lowest, he reminded me of how strong I was and told me I could overcome any obstacle, and because he believed it, so did I. He was a good and decent man and I will miss him dearly. He was so proud of his children and told me so over and over--you both were a bright sun in his sky. My heart goes out to his family and all those that love him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this sad time. May your hearts heal quickly and his legacy be one of love and laughter.
