Mike I remember all the fun we had in High School ... I just know you had a good life and will be missed ... my heart goes out to all the family

May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you. Friends are the pillars on your porch. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes they lean on you, and sometimes it's just enough to know that they are standing by. They say love beyond the world cannot be separated by it. Death cannot kill what never dies. "Love never fails". 1Cor 13:8.
