Again Im sorry, Michael will be missed but at least you know hes up in heaven with Aunt Gail right now.. you know?...I LOVE YOU

Dear Mike,

Forgive me for not knowing this terrible tragedy happened to you and to Michael. I know how much you loved him. He is with your Mom now. Our prayers are with you. God will help you through this. I love you very much. Please call me.

Dear Mike:

I don't even know where to begin. My best memory is of when Ashley and Michael were little (around 4) and everytime you would bring him over to our house, Ashley would run in and put on her best dress. How cute they were then... They grew up quickly - in the blink of an eye it seems. Sometimes we don't understand God's plans for us but we have to put things in His hands when the going gets rough. I have been where you are (as you know) and I know your pain and your...

Dear Mike:

You are very dear to me, but I didn't get to know Michael. I do remember his precious face as a little boy.

As evidenced by Fr. O'Brien's service, the grief-stricken tears and the overwhelming expressions of love, you and Debbie, together, raised a remarkably loving young man.

I know how proud you were of your son. You gleamed when you spoke of him. You were excited about his future and all he had overcome. But, Heaven wanted him much more. ...

Ms. Debbie, Sandra and Roland,
Please know that Jason and I truly thought the world of Michael. We think of you all every day and you are in our constant prayers. We picture him in his green and white seersucker shorts with a huge grin on his face. He was unfailingly polite and his smile was infectious, thank you for sharing him with us....may God be with you.

I can still remember seeing Michael one of the first times during the fall of 1986 in Mom and Dad's house in Cary NC. Holy Cow! He was the biggest infant I ever saw! It was great, he was a tank. Finally...a baby that was not fragile. (smile) We are terribly saddened to learn of Michael's tragic death. He grew to be a handsome young man, filled with life and energy. There are few words that can ease the pain and suffering you are going through. Please know, you and your families are...

In times like this, I know words cannot express what you are going through. Just remember, Jesus is with you always. He said He would not leave us nor forsake us. Debbie, when you feel you can't go on, just reach up ... and draw strength from our Almighty Father and Savior, Jesus Christ, and know that Jesus will bring you through.
Love you always,
Priscilla

Debbie,
I did not no about this avenue to express my sympathy to you. I remember the few times we talked about our children. The love we have for our children can not be measured, but God's love is even greater. Let God's great love and mercy see you through this difficult time. He loves and cares for you as we do. Please know that you are in my prayers, and if I can do anything please let me know.
May God bless you as you take this hard journey. Love and peace Robin Johnston(OR...

Debbie I attended Savannah High with your Mother, I've been traveling and I just found out about your families loss. No one can imagine the pain your family has at this time with the loss of Michael. But know that we all are praying for you and your family and have you all in our hearts. May God be with you all at this time and for ever.
