Bob and I have so many fabulous memories on Fairwood with Michael, Melissa, and the Leftwiches - Christmas sing-a-longs, New Year dancing, celebratory dinners, and hanging by the Leftwich pool in the backyard under moonlit skies. I appreciated his intelligence and calm, centered presence. He had the knack of making you feel relaxed and special when you spoke with him. Bob and I send our love and condolences to Michael’s family and friends who I know are heartbroken as we are.

My heart is breaking for all of us
Kiss and hug to all
Embrace his spirit
Live it

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
