Words seem so inadequate at this time but the love and prayers behind those words stand firm and we want you to know that we share in your grief. Lorrie, I haven't seen Michael in a long time so when he comes to mind, all I can envision is this handsome dark-haired little boy that we were in charge of because we were the "older" sister and friend. I pray that God will embrace you with the mercy that can only come from Him and give your family comfort in the days ahead. Glen, Allison Duck & Family
