When someone you love becomes a memory; that memory then becomes a treasure.
Martha I just learned of Mikes death.
I would like to express my sincere condolences of Mike. It was obvious what a beautiful marriage and friendship the two of you shared. I cannot imagine the heartache you must feel.
I remember Mike as always being a practical joker. I was so nieve when I started at CPD so needless to say he got me alot. He had a wonderful sense of humor was generous and caring. In short, Mike was exceptional and will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
With a heavy heart I grieve with you.
Stay strong. I've included my information so we can stay in touch!
God Bless

Martha and family, I'm awfully sorry to hear about Mike's death. I appreciated meeting him at the family reunion in 2008 and was really shocked when I learned the bad news from Baxter last night. Tom and I hope you are doing all right and will receive the support you need to get through such a difficult time. Suzanne Shumate Morrison

Martha,
I am deeply saddened to hear about Mike. As you know Mike and I attended and graduated together from the police academy. I will always cherish those memories and many more in years following. Mike was a great friend and one of the nicest people I have ever known. He will be greatly missed by myself, those he touched and the community he served.

So sorry to hear about Mike. He was and always will be remembered as the kindest and most caring person. We were so lucky to get to know him. Just know that you are in our thoughts. No words will heal the hurt, just know that he is watching over you and keeping you safe. There is a reason for everything and someday we will know what it is, until then you just have to make him proud!

Bonnie,
There was always something sweet about Mike, from the time my brother and I first knew him growing up. I guess Mike was about 13 years old at the time when he and my brother were "dedicated" fisherman. I always enjoyed seeing him come to the house. Looking back, I see him as a neat kid. I would love to have seen him in his later years. Will keep you in my prayers.
