I was so hurt and sorry to hear about our loss. Mike was and always will be my bestfriend. He will always hold my heart in his hands. When I needed a miracle, God placed Mike across my path. He was my angel here on earth. He will always be the true definition of friendship. God took my angel back to Heaven so he can watch over all of us. The Priceless memories are what he left behind. Lets keep sharing these memories together.
