I only knew Michael and Faye for a short time but they stole mine and my daughters heart. April loves them so much as do I we were at their wedding last year and and it was very special. Our condolences and prayers are with everyone with the loss of a precious man and loved one. He earned his wings. May God Bless everyone and bring all of you peace and comfort always. Patsy and April
