Mike, I know you´re in heaven reunited with Colleen and that makes me happy. My heart breaks for those left behind who are heartbroken from losing you. You were funny, kind and a good man. You suffered a great loss yet you still showed up for your friends and always gave heartwarming advice. Go now and enjoy the promises of Christ. You deserve them. Love always, Maureen Hayes (retired CPD)
