Condolences from the Dove family in North Carolina. It's been quite a few years since we came to visit. Thank God for allowing us to see Michael at that time. For awhile Michael and I communicated via email. He informed me that he had become sick. I was really saddened to hear of his passing. May God bless each of you with comfort beyond measure and may memories of him warm your heart and turn your pain into a smile. Audry, Alexander, Daniel, Larry, Loretta and Nathaniel Dove.
