My thoughts are with your family. I am thankful to have had Mike in my life. While I was very young the last time I saw him, I remember he was always fun to be around.

Mike was that crazy, goofy, fun loving uncle. He gave us all so many laughs over the years, with too many stories to share. It was heartbreaking to see him last September not as his usual self, but that visit will stay with me forever. I feel blessed to have seen him and my mom (his sister) be together one final time on Earth, and I'm comforted knowing that they were only apart a few short months before reuniting again in Heaven.

Much love to Laurie, my cousins and the kids.
