My old friend Mike- you will be missed and thought of always... until we meet again on the other side with a joke, a goofy laugh, and a big hug. I wish that I could have been there in person... So for you, THIS ONCE, I'll say "Go Ravens!" and mean it.

Love, Kel

It broke out hearts to lose you, But you didn't go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God called you home.

There's not much more that I can say that hasn't already been said or expressed.

It will always be known what a true Friend you were to so many of us. WE ARE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO HAVE HAD YOU IN OUR LIVES!

I will never forget. XOXOXO

Mike I will truly miss you.I'm so sorry I can't be there for your funeral. I along with so many others share great sadness, you were there for so many of us. You made so many people laugh and always put a smile on our face when we saw you. You were the core to so many of the people we know today. I can still remeber all the jokes you told and we all will remember that laugh. I can still remeber you calling my parents car the Sweet Pickles Bus. Butler and I laughed on the phone about that the other day. We also remebered you saying he had skelevision because he had that t.v. with not inside components. Wow Mike all the goods times We all will remember. Mike Kinn I love you brother and will never forget you.

Love Ray Mireles and Family.

My sweetest Mike, whom is going to hug me so tight, whom is going to tell me how great my husband and I are together, whom is going to make me laugh, (out loud) with a stupid joke. Thanks for being all that to my husband and your best friend. I miss you dearly and wish you would just come up and hug me one more time. See you on the other side. MRS. Mike D.

Mike Kinn was an exceptional man and a wonderful friend to our son, Mike D. They have been buds since high school. He had a great sense of humor, but was never unkind. He would do anything for anybody. I think we all have special memories of him. Mike will be sorely missed and never forgotten by those who knew him, but especially his mom, brothers, sister and of course, his best friend, Mike D.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
