Michael I always think about you but even more this week. I know my life would be very different if were here to help me. You knew all along how things would turn out. You & Daddy. Like you once said to me, "It's like watching a movie of someone else's life." It's wild how crazy & out of control life gets. I miss you, I knew you loved me no matter what. I know you are happy now!
Love,
Kathy

Well Big Brother,
It's been nine long months without you. No phone calls demanding I come RIGHT THEN to see the latest project you completed at 11:00 at night.

No garden,Marie & Mikey still talk about having to replant those potatoes before going to the beach for spring break. Boy, those fresh potatoes were good that day you fried them under your carport, except for Pam's...

Michael and Pretty Girl
Well Michael, can you believe it's Christmas? It sure doesn't seem like Christmas because you're not here with us. We all miss you so much. It's still hard to believe you're not with us. Everyone misses you so much, especially Skeet. You would be proud of Mikey and Marie, they are really helping their Mom out so much. Pam is doing better, but still misses you so. Brandon and Cameron really can't understand where you are, they just miss their Uncle Michael and want to see you. We all...
