I will always keep our last hilarious group text (Michael, Diane, and me) in my phone.
Michael was like my brother from another mother. He, Diane and I shared one brain and we never really knew who was in possession of it!
Part of me is gone, never to be forgotten; but I will see you again my love!

Michael's warmth and wonderful compassion were the first things I noticed about him. He had a certain grace, and I've loved him since the day we met. His leaving us has left a blank space in the world. I miss him.
