Our brother Michael had moved away long ago, but we talked and saw each other when we could. His Michigan visits and a few trips down south, will be special memories kept forever. I will always miss my big brother's hugs, smile, talks, and goofiness- he was the funny one of all of us. His Wizard of Oz' Cowardly Lion and Bill Murray's Caddyshack, Stripes and Ground Hog Day impersonations were hilarious. I can't say enough about all the things we did growing up and how great of a man he was. You know, life is cut short for so many and sometimes we do not get the chance to have that one last moment, but I know he is looking down and smiling and saying, He'll be alright!
Our Mom and brother, Dennis welcomed him as he was taken from us and his niece, Stefanie, will surely have many laughs in Heaven! I love you Mike and miss you lots! Your sister, Karen xoxo
