Missy and Jadyn,
God, I love you all. Michael was very special to me. I once told him that I broke all of the rules of being a cargiver. I became attached to you all very quickly. I am glad that I was afforded the chance to take care of Michael. Michael and I became fast friends and he once told me that I was a very good friend to him. He often held me in strictest confidence to him. Michael often told me that he loved me and, even after he had trouble speaking, he had his way of showing me that he cared about me. I am glad that I was able to make the time he had left a better quality of life for him by making his alphabet boards and helping him play cards. Missy, you and Jadyn are near and dear to me and I hope that our friendship will continue for along time coming. My love to you and Jadyn.

Mike was and continues to be an inspiration to live life to its fullest, every day and every moment. His sparkling eyes and readiness to jump into any project whether at work, home or play, will be sorely missed. I am sure he is playing on the heavenly team, throwing a few balls in the air for Jadyn to catch in her dreams. Missy, my sympathies are with you and your family during this difficult time. May your dreams be special with happy memories of your time together.

You didn't have to converse with Mike to know he was sincere & kind, to know he was genuine & warm; his smile said it all. You didn't have to spend much time with him to feel like he was your best friend. Mike just had a way about him that made others feel at ease.

Please accept my deepest sympathy in the passing of Mike. My fondest memories of him are watching Remacor and Brindle Printing play in the North County League. He helped my son Matt in more ways than you could ever know. He was a fine friend to our family and a wonderful young man. He will be sorely missed.

May God always Bless the Porada Family....I can not truly relate to all that you have been through. But I do haves some idea of your suffering,also. My sister is suffering from Parkinson's Disease. It can be a very tramatic experience, for any Family to have to deal with. I understand,some of the heartache that you all have endured. I first read about Micheal's courageous fight in the New Castle News Online. I am now watching,my Sister slowly loose her mobility and struggle to get oxygen into her lung's. It weighs very heavy,on my heart. I am a true believer in Prayer,but when you witness all that they are suffering...our "Heavenly" home is where they should be. Even tho,Micheal is no longer with you here on this earth..he will be with you always. You will see his "SMILE" on the face of his Daughter. You will remember all the "GOOD" memorie's and He will always be with you in your heart's.
Micheal,I think was ready to go to his Heavenly home. It was,His Family that was not ready to let Him go.I know that some day,I will be facing the same situation,and God only knows how I will handle it.
Praying has helped me and I would strongly suggest that His Family leans on the word's of our Heavenly Father and his many "Friends".
You have my most "Sincere" condolence's and heart felt Prayers. I did not know Micheal personally,but I could feel a special bond with Him. His feeling's must have been,what my Sister is now experiencing. May He rest, in Peace Always!!!

Mike,
I know that you are looking down on us and in the perfect place. I'm so happy to have known you. I'm proud to call you my friend and only wish that I could have spent more time with you. You have an amazing wife and daughter and I know that your values and legacy will live on through them. I offer my most sincere sympathy to your family. Rest in peace my buddy. I look forward to the day that I can tee it up with you again.
