I told you the day before you passed how much we love and respect you, this world is not the same without you in it. It feels like a bad dream I'm never going to wake up from, but I do find hope and comfort in the possibility we will see each other again one day. Tell grandpa I miss and love him, too.

Love always, your only son, Mike
