Michael ... I know you will be looking over all of us from up above. I will miss you and your wise cracks... I will always remember all of our childhood memories.... wrestling, KISS concerts, sliding down the stairs at your mother's house and making her "yell" and all of the trouble Karin got us into. Be happy up above and know that your spirit will live within your children.

I love you :) Sheryl

Patty, Paul, Tina & Family,
We're so sorry and sad for the loss of Michael. We'll never forget the little boy who lived next door all those years ago. It was such a good time. We had a lot of laughs and especially remember all the mischief he used to get into with Karin & Sheryl. He'll live on in his wonderful sons. He'll never be forgotten.

Love, Uncle Joe & Auntie Linda
