The loss of Michael is very saddening. He truly was a kind soul who could talk a dog off a meat wagon in his special way, if you know what I mean. Now thinking back he was a man, who had nothing bad to say to anybody, just talked his mind and engaged yours. There are many stories that we will rehash as we did tonight that will bring more laughter when the grieving is over. My thoughts are with you all in this difficult time
