Dear Michael, It seems like everyday when I am sitting on my back stairs about 5:30 in the morning when I am having my cup of tea there are some different colored dragonfly's and one very tiny hummingbird taking the nectar from the yelllow and purple flowers. I remember you used to meet your dad at the coffee shop about that time in the morning. I think that of you in so many ways when I see these because you always liked these types of things. I say to myself is that you MICHEAL????? sending me love because you always knew how I loved my flowers. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN I AM SENDING YOU MY EVERLASTING ENDLESS LOVE TO YOU. "Rest In Peace" ALWAYS AND FOREVER, NANA S. 143 XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Mike, I just read the memory ur grama left about the butterfly. I was at the beach the other day and a butterfly, an orange one, landed on my arm and kept flying around me. I thought it was kind of weird that a butterfly would be on Salisbury beach... Anyway.
Miranda picked out something for you. I'll bring it by as soon as I can. We miss you so much. Any time the kids see someone that looks like you from behind Darren gets all excited and says "Dude!". He is still 2 little to understand. Still thinks he is going to run into you. I thought he was 2 little to remember you, but it shows what an impact you had on people big & small. As for Miranda, her eyes light up and then she gets a sad look. At first thinking it's you, then realizing it's not.
We shared a lot of good memories and I treasure them but I can't help but to wish we could've shared more. I remember when I bought that beige table cloth I loved so much. No sooner did I put it on the table, Steve spills coke on it! I wash it, put it back on and tell ya's I'll knock ya's out if you spill anything else on it. Steve says what's the point of having it on the table then. I said Mike understands... lol Then you're sitting there eating fruit loops and drinking Hawaiian Punch and all of a sudden as I was sitting next to you, you threw up all over my table cloth! U thought I was gonna knock ya out! ha ha But I felt bad, you had the flu... but my table cloth found it's way to the dump.
I remember the night we were sitting down to eat dinner w/ hat black table. Plates all have food on them, cups have soda in them. I put the last bit of food on the table and we're all starving and ready to eat and CRASH! The table collapsed! Food & drinks all over the rug. Plates & cups shattered. So much for spending an hour in the kitchen cooking a nice meal for the people I love... Glad MCD's was 30 seconds away!
I could write forever about all the good times... I'm glad we got to share a few years of your life and I wish it didn't have to end so soon and the way it did. You helped so many people out. I just wish the favors could've been returned. You were the type that would hand someone your last dollar and the shirt off your back.
Love ya always and forever, Michelle Miranda & Darren
