~*~ Well Mike it's been a year and feels like yesterday. I miss my big brother so much. I wish this void inside me would leave but won't cause you aren't here to fill it. I want so badly to talk to you or just sit with you. You would be so proud of Belynda. Graduating with honors, beta, graduate of merit, and the going to Ferrum college in Aug 2010. Marshall, Mom, and I are so proud of her. Don't worry you'll be at graduation to. I am making shirts with your picture on them so she can have her daddy close to her. Mike I love and miss my big brother so much. Just sitting here 1 yr later alone thinking of you, wishing things had been different last May.

With all my love big Brother,
Little Sis

~*~The bond forged between us was not one that could be broken by absence, distance, or time. And no matter how much more special or beautiful or brilliant or perfect than me he might be, he was as irreversibly altered as I was. As I would always belong to him, so would he always be mine,And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.. i love you, you are my life ~*~

Day in day out it is hard to believe, that my uncle is no longer on this physical existence of life. Although you are in a better place,where you can see us all,I will miss you. I know that as we grew up and went our ways, our contacts became obsolete while I remain in the military but, you were still in my mind and prayers. You will be missed dear uncle.

I pray that you understand that the lord takes what he needs to prepare for "HIS" second coming the strong and the faithful,even if it feels to you that it was to soon the soldiers need to be trained. So my pray for your family is that the tear's will last only for a second and that you rejoice in knowing that you too will search heaven for mike when the time come's. MAY the "lord" keep,comfort and protect you.

I know there no words to ease the pain at this time. I worked next to Mike at Royal 221. You'll be glade to know he was a pain in the tail.He did enjoy scaring you,and of course his joking around.He spoke often of his family,,and how proud he was of his girls. He talked of his love for wood working,he was good,I bought several of his pins. Mike was really good about looking out after his guys,always there to help. I will miss Mike,my prayers are truly with you as you face this time. Ps 23
