Uncle Mickey,

I remember those phone calls, "I'm just checking on you I haven't heard from you in awhile". You helped us through our ailments, gave us loving advise and most of all leant an ear when we needed you.

You will truly be missed.

Jesus said that in his Father's home there are many mansions. If there are mansions there must be rivers. Wonderful rivers. I am sure that God has provided a fabulous boat on that river and Mickey is on that boat, fishing rod in hand. He is going to catch the greatest, most perfect fish of his life. Rest well dear Mickey.
