Dear Lisa and family. I was so stunned and sorry to hear at church yesterday of Michael´s passing. Fr. Tim spoke so nicely about Michael and the deep effect it had on him of losing someone so young. I still see Michael as a little Wee Wun in preschool. It must be a devastating loss to you and your family. My heartfelt condolences and prayers for you all. My loving thoughts are with you.
