I´m so sorry for your loss. Michael was a classmate of my son, Connor Cahill, from middle school through high school. I remember Michael and his "never let the monkeys get you down" attitude. Funny, smart, irreverent and never an ounce of self-pity. He took life as it gave it, enriching the lives of those who had the distinct pleasure and honor to know him. May he rest in peace. Godspeed, Michael!
