We were stunned to hear about Mike. Erika, I am so very sorry about your Daddy. To anyone who knew him, it was obvious how much he loved and adored you. I can't count how many times I saw you two out riding bikes together! Always keep him and your memories of him inside your heart and never forget how very special you were to him. You made him very happy and proud. You are in our prayers.
