I really didn't know much about Michael's history only where him and I intersected...we met at church and he was on the video camera team when he spotted me in the front row with Christine and Michael...He was envolved in being an active member of Hiis Church because Pastor Johnson and Michael both attended the same bible college...I always noticed him as a person who was very envoled in helping the ministry run smoothiy...He was always helping set things up and very active in things of the church...He and I seemed to be very compatible though different...and I was excited about who he was and he was also about me. We began dating, the church rule was only in a group....Next thing I knew he wanted to get married...I had been married once and was single for some time figuring probably never to marry again..I certanly didn't know what "wife" meant just knew how to take care of what needed to be taken care of...I thank Michael for the time we had together and it was always a pleasure...When he proposed he reminded me that his mom taught him to sew and cook and be handy around the house so how could I say no...He had a sense of humor that always made me laugh,  He was smart and always a strong emotonal support to me and our family...Michael was the best person I could have met to be a faithful companion and friend...I didn't always get him because I was always in motion and seriously goal driven...Michael, on the other hand knew that life wasn't so serious and he consequently was more relaxed than I was..though it didn't occur to me that heart desease could have something to do about that...since he told me early on I might have to push him to get him motivated..and that he could never sleep a full night since jr. high school...He always refered to me as OCD which I still to this day do not get quite what that is..as it sure seems normal to me. If I had paid better, more close attention to his history I could have put 2 & 2 together and conquered this menace that was to take him away from our life together...I thought as he did that our intersection would last throughout eternity...I do wish to see him again and he certainly is Forever Missed!...Love and Kisses Michael...
