Hey My Childhood Friend in Sandy Springs--I was just talking to a mutual friend of ours last week and I mentioned it had been 5 years since your passing. Time goes by so quick when you're in the late 70's. As I said once before, you haven't missed a thing in the last 5 years other than your friends who still think about you ...like me...always Ike

Mike --U haven't missed a thing the past 4 years other than your friends. We had a pandemic and almost a million PPL dies of the virus or whatever it was. Four ( 4 ) years later, prices of everything you can buy have doubled. The country is divided between Trump and Biden. Heck, the country and PPL are so different between 2000 and 2004. Many PPL want Pre Pandemic times back .It's a crazy world now...not that it wasn't when u "passed"...it's crazier. Maybe , it was best you just took off on your journey vs hanging around here. I missed you Mike and the memories we shared as childhood friends. "Until That Time"--C U When I C U and we can talk.--always Ike

Michael was always a great friend.We
knew each other very well when he lived in Jacksonville Florida. We shared many wonderful times together. I would travel to many different places to see him.I will always remember the beautiful rides on his motorcycle up to Kennesaw Mountain. I would stay with him and Melinda in her home in Sandy Springs. I also loved Melinda and Michael's parents. so sad to hear of his passing. Melinda if you read this I would greatly appreciate a call 904-402-2018.
