Dear Mikie
Three years have passed since you left us, but not in spirit. We all miss your smile, humor and most of all your love. I'm sure your father and you are watching over us all the time. We sent balloons up today with love messages, our family tradition on your anniversary and birthday. We watch them disappear in the clouds and then sit and talk about the good old days. Marc, Michele and Kayla are making you proud. Watch over your old mom OK, she needs all the help she can get. I love you. Love Mom

Dear Mikie
Two years ago you left us. The pain just never stops, it just gets more numb. I miss you so much but I know you're watching over us and we feel your presence all the time. I know you're at peace, which is something you did not have here. I know you'll be waiting for us when we come to meet you. Hug Max for me!! Love Mom

Mikey,
At a time like this I don't know what to say other than I miss you & I miss not receiving the "stories" your father would share with mom. You went through a lot from what you shared with me when you visited me in North Carolina and I know you left out lots. I just wanted you to know your in my heart and I think about you. Love ya man!
PS I'll never forget what you mailed to me! (this keeps me laughing).

Hi Mikie
It's been over 9 months since you left us. We celebrated your birthday with ballons and had a celebration on July 4th - you were there I know. We all miss you so much - life is empty now without you. There are no words to describe the deep ache that just never goes away. I know you're at peace and free from all pain. Thank you for constantly watching over us and giving us that secure feeling that you are near. I love you and miss you. Love mom

Dear Sister & Family,
The pain of your loss is felt and shared by many. Mikie was a wonderful man and a fun guy to be around. The times we spent together will always be cherished. He was always there for me and my children. Mikie always told his young cousin Dana "If any boy gives you a hard time, you call me"...That was our Mikie. He had a good heart and a caring soul. He will be missed. Love you dude!
