It was always a pleasure hearing Mike's voice and seeing his smile, which he had for everyone. He is certainly going to be missed among his Pitt Ohio co-workers. God's blessings of peace and comfort to the whole family.

I hope this gives you some comfort.
As I gaze down from above, I see, I feel, I hear your sorrow. Viewing the tears slowly moving from your eyes and down your cheeks, I experience your sadness and pain. At the same time your tears give me great joy knowing that you loved me. People may say he's gone forever, remember time is a concept developed by man, and your millennium is but a blink of an eye to me.

The spirit resides in a shell we call a body, which is given back to mother earth to become dust. I am always with you! When the wind blows I am there. As raindrops fall from the sky, I become a rider on rain. When we depart it simply means that we have completed what we were sent here to do. Viewing where I once existed and watching the seasons change as well as watching my loved ones change and grow only adds to my eternal bliss.

When we depart the love we hold is taken with us as were taken to a place where there is no hurt, no anger, no sadness. We must always remember how fragile we are, and what our life means. Be at peace with yourself. Take a deep breath and foucus on the ever- present white light . Allow the light to take you to a place of peace, not peace as in no war or verbal conflict, not even peace as in a quite street, but a peace one must acheive within themself. At that time nature will be your guide.

We come into the earth like a beautiful flower, and like a flower we will die, however like a flower in spring a new one takes place, as our offspring allows our cycle to continue. Live, love, respect and always enjoy the view.
