To the whole Bracht and Mcgregor families. We were so sad when we returned from our trip and found out about Michael. He was such a special boy and I just wanted you to know that so many people are sharing your tears at this terrible time. I had the nicest talk with Michael at Margaret and Greg's the other night and I could tell by our conversation that he had a huge passion for his flying. He was such a sweet man and one that will never be forgotten. With love Brenda and Dave Eyford.

Ed & Libby When I read about your son, my heart went out to you both.



I wish there was more I could say but there are no words that would comfort you only GOD BE WITH YOU AT THIS TIME.
