Leah, I am so sorry for your loss. Michael was a wonderful man and a loving husband and father. I will miss him more than words can express. Thank you for being by his side as he fought to live. I always felt so close to him being his cousin and although we may not have gotten together as often as we should have, the love and affection was always present. My love to you and Lexi, and Jason and Matthew. My sympathies also extend to the rest of the family. I will be there at your sides as we depart from Michael until we meet again in God's arms.
