Mike, I can't believe that it has been 17 years today that you left us. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. You will always be remembered and you will always be in my heart. You are missed very much.

Dad I know I'm a few days late but I can't believe it's been 15 yrs since you left us. It still hurts like it was yesterday. I love and miss you every day. A say don't go by that I don't think of you. I tell the boys about you all the time. They ask several questions about you. What you were like what you like to do all sorts of things and the one answer that never changes is you were the greatest and no one could ever take your place. I love you and miss you dad.
Hope you enjoyed your snuff uncle was holding on to for you

The grandkids are all grown up and have lives of there own now. The kids are all scattered, some in different states. The only thing that has not changed is me missing you every day. I know that your not suffering and that your with your mom, dad, brother, grandma and so many others. Rest In Peace Baby. Love and miss you bunches.

We are all doing ok and you would be so proud of Paisley, graduated from high school, went into the Air Force, and is now engaged to a wonderful young man. All though she was discharged from the Air Force for medical reason's, she has done well. The kids are doing good, and I am also. Love and miss you bunches.

Happy Valentine's Day baby. I think about you so much everyday. I miss you so much. I've been staying very busy lately, working. It tends to keep my mind off of so much. I wish you were here with me, as I miss you so very much. Your forever in my heart, what's left of it. You took such a big piece of my heart with you when you went on your journey. I'll always love you baby.

Five months today is when you left on your journey. Everyday you are thought of and missed. I miss you more with each passing day. And each day I tell myself that I have to be strong, not just for myself, but for our kids and grandkids. Just knowing that you are walking beside me, I can get through each day. I love you baby and miss you so much.
Always & Forever

I miss you more & more everyday day. I wish you were here to give the strength that you always had.I try to be strong but I feel myself getting weaker and weaker everyday. Trying to get threw this time in my life. You were always there to give us strength, to get us threw times like these. The family is doing good. Better then in a long time, But I feel times like this will make me lose everything ive worked so hard for to get us were we once were. I know I caused this on myself and whatever the outcome is. I need you to give me the strength to get me threw this. To get me to the better place in my life. If only there was away you could help , give me the strength you always had. Please just give me the strength to get threw these times in life. The strength it took you to decide that we would be okay for you to move on, to move on to the next journey in your life. You will always be loved and miss.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To my dear husband Mike. The day you left was the hardest day of my life. But even though it's hard, I know that your always there, watching over not just me, but your family too. You would be so proud of each and every one them. Michael, Charles, Carrie and Michelle have been there through it all. The family is sticking together and helping each one through. We had that B.B.Q. for you that you wanted so bad. All the kids and grandkids were together for the first time in a long time. We knew that you were there with us.
Paisley got several awards at school today. I know that you are so proud of her. Christian received the highest award for his Tuba playing at school.
You are missed so very much, and you have touched so many hearts. I will carry your love with me always. Your missed dearly.
Your loving Wife

Joyce, Carrie and Family: When we first met Mike, he was one of the nicest men you could ever meet. He welcomed my children and I into his home with the greatest kindness anyone could have. He took my son who is blind, by the hand and showed him the layout of the house and was so helpful to him. That is a genuine, kindness, sweetest person anyone could meet. That is something a parent will always remember for years and years. Mike will be remembered by us through his kindness,sincerity, helpfulness and all the extra things he has shown. God has ended his pain and suffering and he is in a good place. If you ever need anything, always remember I am only a block away and just call. Our thoughts and prayers are always with you in this time of sorrow.

Joyce, Charles and Carrie.
I am so sorry for your loss. Words can't make this better. Believe me I understand the empty void that is left when a loved one passes away. I wish none of us had to bear this kind of sorrow. Remember all the good times and that he is no longer in pain. He isn't hurting anymore. You are all in my prayers, cling to each other. I'm sorry I can't be there.

For a man to step in as a step dad is a wonderfull man, but he was so much more.....he was a father, a grandfather and a husband that would do anything in his power to help and support his familey. We were all blested to know him and to be loved by such a wonderful man.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
