It has been 16 years of longing for our times together. My days and nights are so lonely as we never missed a day not talking on the phone. You left me with such great memories of all our vacations together. You left this world much too soon. Have a wonderful birthday with family and friends! Just know that we miss you so much. You will always have our love and just want you to know that part of my heart is always with you! Forever and always loving you, Vicki

Happy Birthday to a very special brother, Dad and Grandpa! The last 15 years have been so empty without you. You will never-ever be forgotten. You were always there with a kind word and helping hand! Forever and always loving you, Vicki

My life changed so much 15 years ago on July 17th. You were always there to lend a helping hand and so comforting in times that I needed you so much. Seems like my whole heart is with you. You were always so full of life and willing to do anything to make life fun. Never did a curse word come from your mouth nor did you ever say anything to hurt anyone. I thank God for giving you as my brother. Just know that until we meet again my life will be so empty. Always holding you so dear and forever loving you. Vicki

Monday, October 2, 2023 you will be 73 years of age. You will be celebrating with Mom, Dad, family and friends in heaven! Each day my heart aches more for you. You were such a great brother, Dad and Papaw. The last 14 years have certainly not been the same without you! Always and forever loving you, your sister,

It is so hard today to sit and think of the past 14 years without you. You were always my ray of sunshine and hope. I really don't think you ever realized how much strength and admiration you gave to those around you. Never did a curse word come from your mouth nor did any ridicule of anyone. You are and were one of a kind - THE VERY BEST! Miss you each and every day! Always and forever loving you! Vicki

Love, Vicki

September 29, 2022

Happy Birthday! October 2 you will be 72. If only I could have you here with me to celebrate your birthday. I am sure that Mom and Dad are celebrating with you! You all took my heart with you. I can not even begin to put into words how lost I am without you. You and Dad are two of the greatest men I have ever known. I do feel so fortunate to have you for all the years we were here together. I am just selfish and wanted you with me all my life. I am really trying hard to live my life so I can meet up with all of you some day! Always and forever loving and missing you!

There are no words for the loss of you on July 17, 2009. You were always there to help and lend a helping hand in times of need. I turn to God each day to lead me along the right path to meet up with you someday. You certainly took more than a piece of my heart on that day. It feels as if you took my whole heart. Always and forever loving and missing you.

Vicki, I was thinking about Mike and you and your mom and dad. You were all very special to me while we were all growing up. I looked up Mike´s obituary and I have read all the remembrances that you and others have posted and they have made me miss Mike more than ever. I think it´s wonderful how you have honored him on every birthday since we all lost him. I was looking so forward to seeing Mike at our 40tieth class reunion. I enjoyed seeing other classmates however there was a big void for us all with Mike not in attendance. I just wanted to let you know that there are still several of Mike´s acquaintances who still miss him. You are not alone in your loss. Love you like a sister and will never forget Mike. Darrel

It has been 12 long and agonizing years without you. You were always there for me - the fun, laughter, sadness and tears - you always kept me sane. You were my ROCK! When things were looking down you were there to rise me up. I hope you know how much you are missed. My life has not been and will never be the same without you. My heart will never heal from the loss of you. Always and forever missing and loving you! Your sister, Vicki

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MICHAEL BILL! I can not begin to tell you how much of my heart you took with you when you left us. You were the best brother, Dad, Papaw and man. You were so kind and considerate of everyone. In the midst of the worst times you were always there to lend a hand or a kind word. You will never know the loss you left us with yesterday, today and tomorrow. Always and forever loving and missing you.

Vicki

It has been 11 years ago and the pain has not left. You were my rock and I always knew you would make anything better. I sure miss our nightly talks and the weekends we would spend together. The vacations we spent together were so fantastic. I only hope you knew how much you mean to me. Love and miss you so much.

October 1, 2019

Words can not express the loss my heart has felt the last ten years. Your birthday is so very special to me. I remember our times together in Vegas on your birthday. You were always my rock. I knew with you next to me I could get through anything. I only wish I was half the person you were to everyone. I never heard a curse word or ill thought about anyone come out of your mouth. Always know you certainly took a big piece of my heart with you. May you enjoy your birthday with Mom, Dad, Margie and your friends in heaven. All my love, your sister, Vicki

It has been 10 years since I lost the best brother in the world. You were my rock. When something happened, all I needed to see was you and I knew I would be fine. You were the most honest, sincere and courteous man. You had a great since of humor and was always a joy to be with in my life. I hope I can only live a life that I will join with you, Mom and Dad. Always and forever loving you and remembering such great and fond memories.

October 2, 2018

Today is your 68th birthday and what a day it was for Mom and Dad! They brought into this world a very great man. You are one of the best Dad's and Grandpa's in the world. I had the most wonderful brother. You were and always will be my rock. My heart will never be the same. When you left me a part of it went with you. Always and forever remembering our times together and loving you! Love & Hugs, Vicki

July 17, 2018

It has been 9 years and every year another piece of my heart is with you. Time does not heal the heart. You were my rock. We knew the good, the bad and the loss of our loved ones. You were a wonderful Dad and a super great Papaw Beans. There is truly no brother as great and wonderful as you. You never used the word hate or condemned anyone. Always and forever thinking of you and loving you. Your sister, Vicki

May 25, 2018

Always thinking of you, Mom and Dad. Here is another Memorial Weekend. I will be at the graveside knowing how much we loved each other. There is never a day goes by that the memories of our times together - they bring smiles to my face. All your time here on earth with me was much too short. I am now collecting social security that none of you were able to collect because you were too young and able bodied. Always and forever loving and cherishing our family! Vicki

September 29, 2017

Your birthday is coming Monday, October 2 and you would be 67. There is not a minute of they day goes by that my heart does not ache to be with you. I certainly miss our weekends together and nightly chats. You always put a smile on my face and so much love in my heart. You were not only a terrific Dad and Papaw but the best brother on earth. You were the rock for Beth, Ri and me. Always missing you, forever loving you. Happy Birthday! Your sis, Vicki

July 17, 2017

Eight years ago today 3 ladies lost the most precious man in our lives. Beth has had a tough year after having a concussion. We know you are watching over her and keeping her safe from harm. Ri is a beautiful young lady who is doing great at college. We know you are so proud of her. You always took care of us and we knew you were always there for us. Not a day goes by without our hearts aching to touch and see you. You certainly took a piece of each of our hearts with you. Always and forever loving you! Your sis, Vicki

September 30, 2016

This Sunday, October 2, you would be 66. If only we could be spending it together in Vegas. You are one of the greatest men and I am so fortunate to say you are my brother. You were the best Dad and Papaw that a daughter or granddaughter could have in their life. You are missed so very much. You are always in my heart. I so hope that I am living the right life to be with you, Mom and Dad someday. Always and forever cherishing our memories and your love. Love you, Michael Bill! Vicki

July 15, 2016

Seven years have passed since I last talked with you. There is never a minute of the day that I do not feel the loss. You were not only a great brother but the person I always knew would be there for me - day or night - no matter what you were there to comfort and console me. I truly do not know of a man who was more considerate and loving for his family. I know your daughter and granddaughter feel your loss, too. Thanks for being such a wonderful man and we thank God for all our time with you. Always and forever loving you.
Your sister, Vicki

October 2, 2015

Today is your 65th birthday! Words can not express how much a void is in our lives! You were always our Rock. You are always on my mind and forever in my heart. My love for you is everlasting. I am so fortunate that you are my brother. Always missing and loving you! Vicki

July 16, 2015

6 years ago today was the last night we spoke on the phone. Our loss was so great! You were certainly always there for us and have left such a legacy. I know you are smiling seeing your lovely daughter and granddaughter. Ri will be going to college and certainly got a lot of smarts from you! You have a fantastic son-in-law. You are one of a kind - the very BEST! You are always on our minds, forever in our hearts. With my love and admiration, Vicki.

Vicki

October 2, 2014

Today is your birthday and it goes without saying that not a day goes by without us having our love for you. The past 5 years have seemed like eternity! We will never forget your love and compassion for people and family. You were certainly the best Dad, Grandpa, Brother and Son. You were the Rock in our family. Always there to lend a helping hand. Always and forever loving and missing you.

Vicki

July 16, 2014

Five years ago today I was still e-mailing you at work and that evening talking to you on the phone - making plans for the weekend. You had so much you were doing on Saturday but wanted to meet that evening. The next morning I get a phone call you had not shown up for work. My worst fear was true. You are gone but never forgotten. Your beautiful daughter and granddaughter are doing good. They miss you so much as do I! You were are ROCK! Always and forever loving you!

To the Hannah family,
Mike and I were classmates in the second and third grades. I moved away in the middle of the year in the third grade and never saw him again but I have never forgotten him. He was my childhood friend. I remember we used to make each other laugh. I met his friend Chuck Kelhoffer when I was in college and asked about Mike. Chuck said they were very good friends in high school. It is a small world. It has been good reading the things that others have written about Mike and knowing that he had a fun and loving life. Thanks Mike. To Mike's family and friends I am sorry for the loss of someone who was a good guy when he was a kid and was wonderful when he was grown. I'll see you again someday Mike.

Hi Vicki..... wow... only thru an odd meeting of someone on Facebook did I find out about Mike... I truly am so very sorry. Needless to say I could talk about so many memories, but we will leave them as memories. All good though. I hope all is well with you. I will leave my email and phone number if you want to say hi.

Mike,
My heart has not been the same since July 17, 2009. A piece of it went with you. You don't realize what a void you left in so many lives. You were not only a great brother, father and grandfather but a genuine, honest and caring man. You have a beautiful daughter and grand-daughter who miss and cherish you so much. We tell one another how when we need you the most you are still always there for us. Beth has a wonderful husband. Dave is so good to her and Ri. Your "Goofy" brother-in-law, Bill misses you so much, too! We will always have you with us in Vegas! You are and always will be in our hearts! Love you so much! Vicki

Today we lit a candle in remembrance of you.

We feel we knew you well as the brother of our sister-in-law. We found you to be genuine and enjoyable. We truly miss our Vegas adventures. May God Bless You, Vicki, Bill, Beth and Riley.

You will always be fondly remembered by us!

October 2, 2009

Today is your birthday and as usual I can not keep you out of my thoughts. We would most often be with you in Las Vegas and I could not wait until next year because I was going to make sure Beth, Ri and Dave would be there for your 60th. Now here it is your 59th and you are celebrating it with Mom and Dad. We all miss you so much. You are always on our minds, forever and ever in our hearts. Your sis, Vicki

August 18, 2009

Just wanted to let you know that you are certainly missed by all of us. We miss you so much. Your smile, your presence and knowing you were always there for us. Don't really think you knew how much you meant to all our lives. Love and miss you so very much.

Vicki,
We were created to love God and His creation and to be loved by God. You won't remember me, but I remember you and your family. I used to be the paper-boy for your family when you lived on Brelsford Ave. I remember always getting a tip for my services. When Mike was a senior, he, Dan, and Yogi took their free time to work with the 6th & 7th grade boys, teaching us how to play basketball.

When I was in the hospital in the summer of 1970,(appendix) I was on the same floor as your mother. When I heard she was just a couple of rooms away I visited her 2 or 3 times a day while I was there, mostly just to chat and pass the time. I was supposed to be on the pediatric floor but it was full... imagine how exciting it was for me when my favoite HIGH SCHOOL cheerleader (you) stopped in to visit me..
I know you thought it was nothing, but it was a big thrill to me that I will never forget.
Although I was never really a part of your family, everyone in your family showed me kindness in some way...
The "Class of 74" song was, "We Will Never Pass This Way Again"; isn't it good to know that even without knowing it, people like Mike and You as well as your whole family have touched lives in a positive way?!

It is my prayer that God will bring to you and your family a peace that passes all understanding.

IN HIS SERVICE,
With gratitude to your family,

Pastor Dan Heaberlin

Vicki and Mike's famil(ies),
Darrel just told me today of Mike's passing. My heart fluttered and tears came to my eyes. Mike and Bill Johns were Darrel's two best friends through high school, and as such I got to know Mike pretty well. But as others have said, I will remember him for his years on the basketball court, taking Trenton far in the turnaments year after year. Time and change took Darrel and Mike in separate directions, but there were many occasions when Darrel and I would reminice about the days at Trenton and his friend, Mike Hannah. Memories will always keep him close to us and to you, his family. May God give you comfort and peace.

Michael,
It just does not seem right. I would come home every night and chat with you. I would listen on the way home from work about traffic on the radio and worry if you were stuck in it. How I wish I could have that worry again. You certainly took pieces of my heart when you left us. You are always on my mind. Love and miss you more than words could ever convey. Your sis, Vicki

I loved your dad so much. He will always be remembered for the special care he gave my mother before she died. Bless him and you for his loss.

July 25, 2009

Beth, Dave & Ri,
You certainly did your Dad and Papaw proud. His visitation and service were certainly a celebration of his life. He loved you so very much and everyone could see it - his presence was everywhere in the room. Thanks for sharing his love of life with everyone. He certainly was the greatest Dad and papaw and the best brother a sister could have to love and admire. We love you with all our hearts and are always with you,
Love, Bill & Vicki

Mikey, I miss you so much. You made every day I saw you so much brighter. I miss embarassing and teasing you and hearing your silly laugh. I loved hearing stories about Beth and Riley and what you juiced for breakfast that day :) You treated me as if I was part of your family and cared so much for people you never met, like my niece. I am so sad to have lost you but extremely grateful for having had you in my life for the past five years. Love always

Dear Vicki,
It was so nice to pick up the phone today and hear your voice. I was blinking back the tears, but so enjoyed talking about your wonderful brother. I so treasure growning up with you and Mike, your Mom and Dad always made me feel so special. Going to Sunset pool in the summer and lots of basketball games to see Mike play, he was such a star, not only on the court but throughout his life. I have been away in California for a long time, but I have no doubt that Mike was always the best person you could have the pleasure of knowing. You and he had such a strong loving bond, I am so glad to have been there in your life when we were growing up. I send my love and support to you. I share in your sorrow and all those wonderful memories. See you soon.

Beth,

I am sorry to hear of your loss. You may not remember me, but we were in Montage together about 17 years ago. I remember when we were all in Myrtle Beach, your Dad would go snorkeling every morning with the dolphins. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bill & BJ Byrd

July 22, 2009

Vicki & Bill:

We are thinking of you at this difficult time and feel blessed that we had the pleasure of knowing Mike. We first met Mike briefly in Ohio, but we really got to know him during our family vacations in Las Vegas. He immediately made us feel like he had known us forever. We instantaneously observed that he had the ability to make friends quickly and he did indeed with us. Our remembrance of Mike focuses on his pleasant smile and expression of enjoyment for the beauty of life. The trip to Red Rock Canyon was extremely enjoyable … it seemed to be one of Mike’s most treasured places and exemplified his love for that part of the country. We will cherish the fond memories of eating at In-N-Out Burger (which was always a must), one of Mike’s favorite places to eat while in Vegas.

As you, your extended family, and Mike’s friends face the journey of not having him near, take comfort in the fact he will be there in fond loving memories. He will somehow remind you daily of his presence. No one can truly comprehend the loss that you feel and the emptiness that you are experiencing. Our loving thoughts are reaching out to you in hopes you will know that God will provide strength and comfort during the ongoing healing process. You should find consolation knowing he is with God now and flying with the Angels.

As has been said …. In the hardest things we do in life – Love and God will conquer all. Try and remember that his journey has just begun and someday you too will join him and continue on.

We will always fondly remember Mike and even at a distance we will be there for you.

All of our love -
Your family,

Lane Lewis

Mike was turly one of God's special people. I can remember very few times when he didn't have a smile on his face. He was more then just a coworker, he was a friend. I was blessed to have known him.

Michael,
Words can never express how I feel having had you in my life. From the talks of weekend sports results every Monday morning to the angst I would express to you as life threw at me what it could to you randomly quizzing me on the 7 ancient wonders of the world, I knew I could always count on you to be there. I often said you were my Guru…sitting atop the mountain to show me light on these often darkened paths. The bond we share goes way beyond being coworkers; it goes way beyond being friends; the bond we share is that of a father and son that I will forever hold close to my heart. And as I continue my journey through life, love and most importantly fatherhood you have given me something truly special to strive for.

To Mike's family, friends & coworkers-my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I met Mike though my job as a settlement processor and even though we never met face to face, it was easy to see what a great guy he was! I will miss working with him and the little thank you notes he would send me in my closing packages. :-)

July 22, 2009

To Beth, Riley, and the rest of Mike's family:

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this most difficult time. Our words alone cannot fully express our sympathy on the untimely death of your beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend. I know how close Mike was with you two, Beth and Riley, and that you thought the world of him. Mike will be missed by all who knew and loved him. I hope the outpouring of sympathy you have received will serve as a reminder to you of just how special a person he was and how well-loved he was by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Beth, Riley and family:
There are no words to express how deeply sorry I am for your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Mike was a wonderful person, who was adored by many, including myself. He was so wonderful to my mother and our family. Whether he knew it or not, he was a blessing to us in helping our spirits come alive after my father had passed away. Thank you Mike for touching my life, and especially my mother's. We will miss you dearly.

Riley

July 21, 2009

Papaw Beans,
I hope you know that I love so much. There is never anyone that can replace you. You are the best papaw in the whole entire universe. I will always love you. I will miss sharing the holidays with you, seeing you almost everyday, and going to Culvers! Thank you for teaching me how to drive. I had so much fun driving with you! We will never forget what you taught us and everyone else. I love you so much!

My thoughts and prayers to Mike's family. Mike worked with my mom at Wells Fargo.I always looked forward to going on the trips with my mom knowing we would ride to the airport with Mike. We would pick at my mom the whole ride down and would laugh so hard at how good we got her going! He also did something very special for me. When I was in a crunch trying to get my Tanning Salon open, he took his weekend and painted the whole place for me. So everyday that I walk into work I will forever think of him. He will be missed...

Bill Short

July 21, 2009

Mike was not only my brother-in-law, but my best buddy. He was always there for me if I needed him for anything. His sister, Vicki (my wife) and I enjoyed a lot of wonderful vacations together over the years. He was such a wonderful person to be around. There was never a dull moment. I was always getting lots of laughs from some of the things he would do or come up with. He had this great sense of humor that could always make you happy when you were having a bad day. He will always be in my heart and on my mind. I will miss him greatly.

July 21, 2009

Michael Bill,
I was so fortunate to have you as not only my brother but my best friend. I knew no matter what time of the day or night I needed you, you would always be there to help and comfort. I really don't know what Bill or I would have done without all your love and support. We were so fortunate to have spent the last eight years vacationing with you. All the many weekends, birthdays and holidays together. You were not only a great brother but the very best Dad and Papaw. You certainly have two lovely ladies (Beth & Ri)that adore and treasure you. I can tell in all the writings that you were certainly one of a kind - a perfect gentleman but Oh what humor! You will truly never be forgotten! Miss you so much, always loving and remembering you, Vicki

Mike was a wonderfully funny man. Football season will never be the same without him picking on me. (I am a Michigan fan.) I will miss him so much. So, Mike, this is just for you... GO BUCKEYES!!

July 21, 2009

To Mike Hannah's Family,

My heart goes out to your family. Mike was a wonderful person. He was the true example of what a friend should be. He was always there to offer help whenever anyone needed it. He was also there to tease me constantly at work. We were always trying to get one up on each other. I will miss him terribly. I have been truly blessed to have know him. Thanks for all the memories Mike!!
I will keep your family in my prayers.

Beth, Riley, Vicki and Bill, I was so shocked and deeply saddened by Mike's passing. Even more so, because he was just at my house two weeks ago, sitting on the porch. We had a great time! We talked about three hours, nothing in particular, but it was just like I had seen him the day before and that we had never been apart. He even had the courage to let me drive the new Prius around the neighborhood! We had even made plans to have dinner one evening at El Rancho and I was looking forward to that.

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you!

I will always be grateful to Mike for being so kind to muyself and both my girls, and for helping me through my own grief when I needed it the most.

My 'goofball' Mike will be forever missed!

My thoughts and prayers to Mike's family. I will never think of Vegas or the gambling boat without thinking of Mike. I worked with Mike and we had many conversations of our love for gambling or about the next travel plans. He was a very kind and sweet person who I think is best described by many, as always having a smile on his face. It is amazing to think of how many people truely liked him. He will be missed!

I feel that I was blessed to have been friends with Mike Hannah. He was kindhearted, funny, sarcastic (which I loved), energetic, lucky and very loving. His family was his world and I enjoyed listening to him talk about Riley and their adventures together (especially trips to Townsend/Gatlinburg). I loved our trips to the boat, watching him win and then laugh as I lost. He was my buddy and I’m going to miss my daily hugs. His family is in my prayers and thoughts.

Beth, Riley and family:
Your family and our class of 1969 has lost a very special person. Mike was always friendly and thoughtful to anyone he met. From the school years to the years Mike and Beth lived 2 doors from our house, his warm greetings will always be remembered. Our thoughts and prayers will be with Beth, Riley and family for the weeks, months and years to come.

I offer my sincerest condolences to Vicki, Mike's daughter, Mike's granddaughter and all family members and friends. My first memory of Mike is watching him play on the Freshman basketball team at Trenton. As a seventh grader at the time, I looked up to Mike and admired him. I was later fortunate to play basketball with Mike when he was a junior/senior and captain of the basketball team. Since I was too young to drive, Mike always made sure I had a ride to Frisch's for post game food. Mike was admired by Trenton students and faculty, whether as an athlete, scholar, leader, or friend. And since he excelled in all of these areas, he served as a great role model. From the memorials posted I can see that he continued to have a big impact on people throughout his life. My prayers are with you in this time of sorrow.

Mike was an awesome man to all of us at Wells Fargo and he will be Forever missed. I will always remember the fun he had with my name. Occasionally, I was called Crayola, Blotzo and the funniest one of all "Lug Nut". So I inturn gave him the name Dial Up Man because he did not believe he needed a cell phone, microwave or cable tv. We talked about the space shuttle landings, the planets and the stars. He talked so much about Beth and Riley and loved them so much. He talked about his trips to Las Vegas with Vicki and Bill. Life will never be the same without this wonderful and caring man. God Bless you all.

To the Family of Mike Hannah,

~His Journey's
Just Begun~

Don't think of him
as gone away ~
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets ~
this earth is only one...
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows & the tears
in a place of warmth & comfort
Where there are no days & years.
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost~
& he was loved so much!

This poem gave me great comfort when I
lost my father. I hope it will bring you some comfort as well. Please, let us know if there is anything that we can do for you & your family.

To Mike's Family and friends,
You are all in our thoughts and prayers. I know he loved you all very much. I know we we all miss our Papa Smurf. He was not a co-worker to us but a dear friend. I know personally he always made my rough days better, always making me smile. Mike was truly a great heart and soul and he truly cared how people were feeling. He will be greatly missed.

To Mike's Family:
I was blessed to have grown up with Mike, went through school and graduated with Mike. We crossed paths again when we worked together at Voith Sulzer. Mike was a very special and uplifting person and a wondeful basketball player in our high school days! Cherish your memories and my heart and prayers are with you as you are suffering this great loss as well as all that knew him.

Hannah Banana,

Don't think for one minute that the irony of "black-out" week is lost on any of us at Wells Fargo!!!

My life will never be the same for having known you and for having lost you! You were one of my best friends! You brought smiles and laughter to my life everyday, and you will be forever missed!!!!!

Beth, Riley, Vicki & Bill:

We will keep you in our hearts and continue to pray for God's strength and presence to surround you. May you find comfort in knowing just how many lives Mike touched and how many lives are better just because we called him “friend”.

Dear Hannah Family,

I was so sorry to learn of Mike's death.

I grew up on Brelsford Ave. in Trenton as did the Hannah Family. I am six years older than Mike and babysat for him and his sister. His dear Mother, Betty, hired me on several occasions and I helped her for a couple of weeks when she had to stay off of her feet. All four Hannahs were great people. My thoughts are with the family during this difficult time.

We will truly miss Mike, his silly sense of humor, all the times he gave us a hard time, all the times he had to take it right back. Mike was a wonderful person to work with, and had the utmost respect for his team. Beth and Riley, know that he loved you both very much, and said nothing but wonderful things about both of you. Here at work, we feel like we know you because of all the wonderful things he said about you! He will be missed!

Beth & Riley, my sympathies for the loss of your dad and grandfather. I remember Mike from his basketball days in high school. Mike and I used to live in the same apartment building at Bavarian Woods. Beth I met you a few times when you were visting your dad. Riley, your grandpa was so proud of you and he talked about you all the time. You were the apple of his eye. I remember seeing the two of you swimming at the pool - he loved to have you with him. I hope the good memories can help each of you through this very sad time.

To the entire family, Mike and I would joke around all the time. He would always ask if I were okay when he noticed I was down. I'll never forget he made a special trip to Arby's to buy me a milkshake I craved while pregnant...that's just the kind of guy he was. We'll miss Hannah Banana, but his memories will forever be in our hearts.
