Dear Betty, Michelle and family,

We were in Atlanta when we heard the sad news on the passing of Mike. Actually knowing Mike as extended family from Uncle Al, we all share in the saddness of his passing. Mike was indeed a man of faith, always seeing him in church with his wife. He loved is god so much and as years went on he was able to retire and enjoy his retirment. As Jesus suffered for all of us, Mikes suffering is now over as he was called home to be with the God that he so loved. May you find comfort in all the joy that he brought to the family and know that he is now resting in eternal peace.

With deepest sympathy!

Dad, you were taken far too soon, but God has his plans for everyone. You are at peace now. I want to thank you for being the best husband to Mom, the best father to all of us kids, the best friend to many, many people. You always had a smile no matter what the situation. I am proud to call you my father. I love you Dad. God bless.
