To the Michalowski Family & Friends -

Michael at one time the center of your boundless love is now the focus of your boundless grief.

What grief death brings upon us when it strikes a beloved family member or a close friend. Death has been a dreadful reality for mankind for millenniums. A feeling of helplessness engulfs us when someone dear to us dies. This sadness strikes indiscriminately. It spares no one. We become like little children-helpless, unable to alter the situation. Neither riches nor power can reverse the loss. The wise and intellectual are without answers. Strong ones weep, as do the weak.

Although you may feel a deep sorrow that may take some time to dispell, the God of comfort will help you through this time of sadness. He says: “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not gaze about, for I am your God. I will fortify you. I will really help you. I will really keep fast hold of you with my right hand of righteousness.” - Isaiah 41:10.

May the loving memories of Michael engulf your hearts and minds and keep you moving forward.
