My dearest Mike, I'm at a loss for words as this was a shock to me. I have known you since middle school and you have always been special to me. You are and always have been a free spirit and whenever I was down you lifted me up! Your smile was contagious and when you were around there was always laughter you could crack a joke at the drop of a dime. Your heart was so big that even when you needed help you still gave it to others I will never forget you! I'll see you on the other side ❤

Have so much to say, the words just wont form. You lived life like there was no tomorrow. Enjoyed jokes and laughs and could always put a smile on peoples faces. I will continue drinking my "water" thinking of you! Your body may be gone, but your spirit is still with us. Never forgotten. Rest in heaven!
