I will sooo miss your numerous random sister day phone calls over the last several years! We'd talk for hours until interrupted and had to say good bye for awhile. You always wanted to know how my kids and grandkids were doing, and would end our conversations asking, When are y'all gonna come see me in Marble Falls? I'm so grateful for all the days we had together the weeks before our sweet Lord called you home. I'll never forget our game of Yahtzee at MDA when you scored a Yahtzee on your first roll...you thought you were really hot until I scored a Yahtzee right afterwards on my first roll!! We laughed so hard, and I bet God was laughing with us! I love you, brother Michael; and the greatest blessing of all is that I can now say with confidence good bye again, but only for awhile!

Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? 1 Corinthians 15:55

Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one . May 1 Thessalonians 4:14 bring you some comfort in knowing that there is a future for the ones we have lost in death. They are very precious in Gods eyes. May the God of all comfort strengthen your family during this time of deep sorrow.
