It hasn't gotten any easier, time hasn't even began to heal what's broken inside of me. You were my sidekick and without you the world seems a million miles away and I can't grasp it. Sometimes , when I feel cheated I try to remember that you're always watching over me . I love you baby boy and happy birthday .... MoMA

Mike I only got to know you for a few years but in that short time I got to see how much joy you brought to the people you loved. You will always be my brother from another, my son will always look at you as his Uncle Mike and in the little time you knew him I believe you made a tremendous change in his life for the positive and we will always be thankful that you came into our lives. Until we meet again RIP Mike Hankins!

I wish I'd wake up and this would all just be a nightmare god. I feel your presence with us each and every day my love I just dont know how to move on from this or if I ever will. You put a smile on my face more true than anyone ever has. I love you and you loved me unconditionally baby and i will continue to carry your memory on. Rest in peace my baby.

IT still seems so unreal that your really gone
Saying goodbye
Is the hardest thing to do.
I never thought I would be saying goodbye
Especially to you.
You always listened
And knew what to say,
Knew when to give a hug
When I was having a bad day.
No one will ever take your place.
I can always promise you this.
It's hard to find someone like you,
So know you'll always be missed.
Forever In My Thoughts
I knew you for 2 years now,
And those 2 years knowing you
Are the best years I ever had.
You helped me become the person
That I am today.
I always knew that someday
We would have to say goodbye
But now, I see that you have to go
And leave us behind
Soon we will grow apart and
We become just a memory
But I just want you to know
That you will always be in my heart.
No matter what happens,
I'll always love you.
Although this goodbye is just temporary,
This is the hardest goodbye
For me to say.
Wipe your tears off your cheek,
And please, for the last time,
Smile your beautiful smile.
And don't worry,
We'll meet again someday.
For the last time,
Hug me goodbye
And tell me that you'll always be there for me and Mike tell my daughter i said hi and I love her and miss her dearly..
Now your my Angel just as well as my daughter so both of y'all watch over me up there...
You will be missed but never will be FORGOTTEN...
I love and miss you my dear friend
Always yours truley MEXICAN POCOHANTAS

Mike i don't even know what to say man. I'm still having a hard time accepting this. I know you're gonna man but I just don't want to believe it. Last time I talked to you, all you could talk about was how we are living in the end times, that this is it for us. That we're living in REVELATIONS. Guess you were right regardless huh? I'll be praying for the family and all your other friends in this tough time. I love you buddy. Until we meet again hold it down for me up there bud!

With this I don't even know where to begin. Mike was amazing and that is an understatement. If he did something he definitely put his whole heart into it. He had so much love for the ones that he held near to his heart, and that is the main thing I will always remember about him. He was definitely more then special. I will always hold love in my heart for him.
