Sherry, Mike was an inspiration to people from around the nation through our newsgroup. He was an incredible fighter...I will never forget the description of him lifting weights after his stem cell transplant! He did everything in his power to stay with you and your children and he was a remarkable man. May his love and strength, and that of Gods, be with you and your little ones forever.
