Dear Heather & family, our prayers and thoughts are with you at this time. My heart was so saddened to learn of Michael's death. Even though we only saw one another at funerals, I felt anytime I did see him that there was never any time lost. He was a very special cousin to me. When I lived with Grandma Ann (during my college years), he use to always come over (as a 5-year old) to talk and play. I spent alot of time with him when he was young and he always made me laugh. I pray that Jesus strengthens your hearts at this time. Love in Christ, Rita (Congdon)Corbin & family

I'd like to offer my condolences to Mike's family and friends. I didn't actually know Mike personally, but I knew of him years ago when I was in high school. This world is a sad place when tragedies such as this happen. May you find comfort that he is now flying with the angels and watching over you.
