Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4

Although I never met Mikell I followed his life as I work with his mother. She was so proud of him and we always looked forward to his news of whom he was cooking for. He was following his dream and was very successful at it. He will be so missed by the many, many people whose lives he touched.
