Mike. I miss you. You were my favorite person for so long. It's hard not to picture you off somewhere happy and changing the world. I always figured you'd master that stuttering and have the best life, because you really really deserved it. You were just the most wonderful man. Ask anybody who ever met you. You deserved such a good life that God allowed you to live the rest of it with him. So have a good time up there warming hearts and keeping God on his toes with your daredevil feats. And I'll see you when I get there.
