Michael was one of the best friends that anyone could ever have and he will be missed by anyone who has ever had the pleasure of calling him their friend. I know I surely will. Dawn, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I pray that God may bring you peace during your time of loss. If you need anything, anything at all, do not hesitate to call me. I will do everything in my power to help with anything you may need. Rest in peace, Michael. I'm gonna miss you, my friend.
