Boo,

I just got home from San Francisco on business. We always talked about going out there together. The kids took me to dinner for mothers day. Josie has taken her first steps, she is getting so big. We watched kym's wedding tonight and seen you dancing with my Mom and Lisa in your tux, you looked so good ! Kym and Jason were worried that watching it might be hard for me, but I know you dance with them every night now. I love and miss you more then you could know.

Love Kitty

Mike, One of my longest and Best Friends! I’ll always miss ya buddy! However, I am left with a lifetime of Great memories to cherish, even though you left to soon. I look at my own age of “50” and that sure seems old. But when I think of your passing at age “50”, that sure seems young! As a Christian I’ve gotta say, it gives me a lot of pleasure and more importantly comfort in knowing that you are now in Heaven with our Lord Jesus Christ our Savior. I also know how happy you are to see your loved ones welcome you Home! Including your grandmother, stepmother, our friends, Mat Benish, Lisa Land, Rocky Payne, Jud & Josh Welch, Brad Allison and the others that have gone before you. I know that God calls all of us Home when it’s our time! I also know when it’s my time, my loved ones and you “my buddy” will be right there to welcome me Home! Love you my Friend and I look forward to seeing you again one day!

Dear Michael, The day has come for you to go home. God has secured your future. For those you have touched,you will be saddly missed. I'll always remember your incrediable zest for living,in this world,even when lifes quality started to fade. It gives me strength to live each day to the fullest. Your ability to laugh and have fun even in the tough times. And most of all I'll remember your capacity to love. The love you showed our family, we truly felt for you. The amazing love for Kerrie you showed and shared,and for her kids,I'll always envy and strive for. Your love for your children, I hope to share in their future. You are forever a part and a blessing to our family. I'll miss your sweet southern accent when you said "How ya doin Kel or how ya doin sis!" I long for one more time to tell you. I LOVE YA MAN! Your sis Kelly

Cousin Mike,
You will be missed so much. Thanks for always picking me to be on your basketball team and for teaching me how to drive (even though I locked your keys in the car!) It is comforting to know that you are in a much better place. I will continue to love and help Cody and Clayton in any way that I can. I hope all family and friends will take comfort in knowing what it says in 1 Corinthians 2:9-10, "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him-but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit".
Love always,
Ashley
Your favorite cousin (I think you told all of us that!)

Brother Mike, you have no idea how you'll be missed. I think back on our lives and can remember so many wonderful times I spent with you. Be it a golf course or a concert, we always had fun. I will make this promise to you... I will always be there for Co and Clay, and they will always know Jacob. Jacob really looks up to your boys. I love you so much Mike, and you will truly be missed. Please keep an eye on mom for us. Tell her we said hi, and we will all be together again one day.

My Angel.........Mike

As we spent your last weeks together I came to realize just how much we always loved each other. You told me that I was you Angel and I want you to know that you will always be my Angel. You also said to me that we would love each other the rest of our lives and that is so very true. I wish that we could of had more time together but God had a different plan. You have made a difference in both of our families. I thank you for what you have given to all of us. We laughed and cried and I enjoyed every second that I had with you and would not change that for anything. The last thing that you said to me........Are you okay???? I want you to know that I am okay but I will miss you more than you will ever know. May God keep you in his arms and comfort you. You will be forever in my heart.
Until we meet again...........

I will always love you.......

Dearest Michael,

And if I go, while your still here...

Know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure- behind a thin veil you can not see through.

You will not see me, so you must have faith.

I wait the time when we can soar together again, both aware of each other.

Until then, live your life to it's fullest. And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart,.... I will be there.

Thank You Mike
Love Kerrie Anne
