Jen,
I really miss Mike, I can't believe that it's been one year. Some recent movies that have come out always make me think of Mike, because I knew you and Mike would be in the audience on premier night.
I hope you and the girls are doing well. You guys meant everything to Mike. He was a good person, husband and most importantly the best Dad your little Angels could ever have. Please continue to keep in touch with Mike's B&N family. We are always here for you and the girls! Love Tee!

To Mike's family:
I never knew him very well. I never got to talk with him much, but wished I could have. The day of the synagogue service I was very moved by the strong feelings the family showed toward him. The news of his sudden departure from this earth was very shocking, but I have to admit I'd had misgivings about his health the whole time we worked in the same office.
I know Mike was a good man and, I'm sure, a great husband and father. I still think about him because I work near his cubicle and thus still remember him.
God bless his memory!

Last year, I was reluctant to sign the guest book; in my heart I thought by not signing this book it would make it all go away, I refused to believe it was true. Today I'm signing because I have not seen or heard from him so I must come to term to the fact that someone I worked with, come to love as a brother shared the same birth date with is no longer with us. Mike you are missed everyday, you were special in your own special way of which no one can replaced that, but your legacy lives on and I know you are watching over them.

Dear Jen & Family,
Even to this day I go by his desk and find it hard not to see him there. He was a great friend and fun to work with since we had many things in common. I know he is looking down at you and watching his family grow.

Hi Jen,
Mike was a very intelligent young man. He was always able to figure out the really weird store issues. Mike was the best dad any child could ever ask for. His 3 girls met everything to him. I remember when you guys started dating. You had so much in common and I was happy that he finally found his soul mate. Take care Jen and please keep in touch, we would love to see pictures of the girls as they grow up. Love Tee!

Dear Jennifer,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your husband Michael. Although we didn't work directly together, I would often run into him in the hallway. He was very pleasant and would beam at the mention of his family. He loved you and the girls very much.
May God bless you and your family.
