Mr. Jimmy, Mrs. Pam, David, Michelle and Claudia,
Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. Michael was a wonderful man with a huge heart. When I think of him the first thing that comes to mind is the huge smile that seemed to be permanently plastered on his face. He always made everyone laugh and he will be sorely missed. Please don't hesitate to call me if any of you need anything.
Love, Julie
