Michael William Rittenhouse

8 years and I am still waiting for it to get easier. My heart never knew true heart ache until I lost you. You will forever be my greatest love.

How lucky I am to have been able to love someone that makes saying good bye so hard. More then 5 years has past since god called you home yet I still miss you more then words could ever say. My heart still aches for you, my soul still searches for you and I am sure they will until the day we are together again

I don't know if you will remember me but I was Mike's third grade teacher at Orchards. I haven't seen him since those school days but recognized the name & face. Mike was a kid who stood out because of his enthusiasm and energy for life. I'm sorry his life was so short but I bet he packed it full and left many wonderful memories to his family & friends. Blessings to you all....

Mr. & Mrs. Rittenhouse, Our Hearts go out to you both during this difficult time. Mike was a Great friend of ours. He was always there for us willing to give us the shirt off his back if that is what we needed. Mike was a Great listener & I loved trying out new card tricks on him, than watching him methodically try to recreate what I had just done. Mike was a master with his attention to detail and several times he would actually figure out my tricks! Amazing! A very intelligent guy! We will...

We can't imagine what's it's like to lose a child. We trust the Lord has sustained you through this time and will be the source of peace and comfort in the time ahead. Our love and prayers are with you both and the rest of the family
