Michael Leigh Rike

i was with michael all the way through high school and after high school. WE was together for a year and he helped get through rough time and always made me laugh. when we found that i was having his first son, he looked at me and said that he wanted to name sid! he hold me up high and had my back all the way. sid looks and has his daddy attitudes.

I am heart broken. I loved you like a son and so glad you were part of my life. You always had such a great smile and were always so positive about everything. Even when life threw you a curve you caught it and did what you could with it. Glad I got to hug you one last time. You are sadly missed Babe. Keep a watch over us big guy! Love you Big Mike :)

I use to know mike back in the day, we all use to hang out. I havent seen him in a while, but that doesnt mean I forgot about him. I was just thinking about how I would like to see him and hang out since its been so long, then I got the call that he was gone.... I give my condulinses to his family and children. Ill miss him so.
