Hey Dad, miss you everyday words cant describe how much. I feel bad because although you didn't leave me it feels like you did. I have to put all this anger down now. So rest well and know i love you daddy.

I can hardly believe you're not here. I dream of you often and so vividly. When I awaken, I feel like you just went back home and you'll be right back. I know you are still here with us. Watching over us, guiding us, and smiling at all the special moments we get through, because you made it possible for us. I love you so much and I know you love us all, your family. You are the best man I'll ever know and the measurement everyone has to meet. God loved you first, and wanted you with Him. I thank Him for you, my precious brother, for the gift of you, and the promise of seeing you again with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, faithfully, lovingly, your sister Belinda

Belinda, Pebbs, Mark
I have just recently heard of the passing of Mikey. This breaks my heart. He was such an honorable man with so much intelligence and integrity. One thing I can truly say is that he loved his faith and family. I remember when we were kids he was so protective of his sisters and I always admired that about him. Stay strong Everette family because I know Mike is singing with the angels in heaven. Until we meet again.

Indea, Mikey, and Naja,

Mike: teacher, mentor, manager and friend. I will miss your smile, your enthusiasm, and those really long obscure words you would use. Thank you for hiring me so long ago, for working those holidays for me, and all of your support throughout the years. ECS will not be the same without you. Peace

I will miss you forever! When we recently talked, I could not have imagine that it would be our last time. My heart is so heavy. God must have needed you more than he thought we did.

Poppy, Mikey, Sister Naja, Mark: You have always been my family despite of life changes. Your dad, your friend and father of your children, your brother is loved beyond the walls of Gary. He is our brother in Christ. We've gained and we've lost a beautiful breath of life but let Gods word of grace and mercies encourage us. For it is written Heaven and Earth shall pass before His word shall fail! 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 read: 6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that,whilst we are at home in the body,we are absent from the Lord:

7 (For we walk by faith,not by sight:)

8 We are confident,I say,and willing rather to be absent from the body,and to be present with the Lord.
Let the Lords Grace bring you peace in your dark hours. Shalom!

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.
Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Amen.

What do we do when a friend dies? They that reside amidst the angels, in serene paradise do they now reside. Perhaps they that observe our earthly faults are the ones who really cry. It was once said that we are are not physical beings having spiritual experiences but rather we are spiritual beings having brief carnate experiences. I will miss you my friend.

Too young, but only the good die young. My sympathies to the family he leaves behind.
