Dear Uncle Michael, Aunt Rosalie and family,

Michael was taken too soon from us in this life. However, he has touched each and everyone in one way or another in a positive way.

He may be gone but will never be forgotten. Especially with his ability to put a smile on all our faces.

He was and will always be in our hearts forever.
