Mike, we were close buddies in college at EPCC, we were in speech and debate together. I have fond memories of that time, and our trip to Vermont where we discovered our love for Ben and Jerry Ice Cream, Cherry Garcia. You are a great friend full of life and love for everyone, and always will be. You have the biggest heart, I will miss you. God Bless you, I hope your family will find comfort and peace during this time.

"I thank everyone who has written and/or who has helped in this every difficult time for my family and I. My brother was the oldest of us all, the wisest of us all, and was the best of all of us. He will be missed greatly by family and friends. It saddens me to know that I will never be able to see, hear, or talk to my brother again; however, I know that he can hear me in my prayers. WE MISS AND LOVE YOU MIKE."

Good-bye for now my brother,
This world won't be the same without you. We've lost a GREAT MAN that no one could or will ever replace. Everyone says you're in a much better place, but they don't know our family. Home our home is where you should be, mom misses you like crazy. I MISS you so unbelieveable that I feel so lost,Mike. My heart hurts for mom and your absense that its broken and feels like sandgrains. we'll keep you in our hearts till the day we are reunited as one family together.

I am so sorry for your loss. He was a good friend and I'm so sorry I couldn't get down to El Paso in time. I'll never look at a baskeball court or Chicos Tacos the same. My family and I send our condolences and prayers. It hurts when good people are lost, especially so early in life.
