I remember the times sitting on Grandmas porch howling with laughter for hours. Your laugh and smile are forever missed, but glad there is no more pain. I wish you had been given the chance to finish turning things around when you were doing so great. I love you.

My life is so different without my family. The loneliness is hard on me, but maybe that's what I get for giving up on you. I miss your sense of humor & the times we'd laugh so hard at somethin', we'd have tears goin'! lol ❥

Michael...I have thought of you all day. It's hard to believe it has been three years since you left your earthly life. I read in my book of important events where I received a letter from you on this date in 1978 after you spent a week visiting Shelly and family in Salt Lake. Many memories through the years. <3

Michael, I am remembering when you visited us for a week in April, 1978 when I first met you. Weather was good only one day when Shelly, Mark & I were able to take you into the mountains & sight seeing around Salt Lake City with dinner at the Spaghetti Factory in Trolley Square that night. Fun day! Lots of memories through the years.

Still so strange to think you're gone, Michael... especially since we were talking things out right before. I wish we still were... maybe we could've untangled some things that went wrong, huh? Just wanted to say thank you for your 'visits'... I feel better after you've been around :) Miss you... ღ

I found a letter from October, 1993 from Michael when he, Shelly, Shayne and Jenna lived in White Sulphur Springs, Montana for a short period. Things didn't work out there as Shelly's friend had promised. Michael was concerned about it, and wanted us to know what was happening and that he loved us. Many memories...

Michael, the girls are having a hard time with you being gone... especially Jenna. I'm at a loss to help them sometimes, but know they have to learn to get thru things themselves now. Sometimes I wish you were here to help me... or, at least to yell at because of the things I see in the girls that are all you! lol Please watch over them... they still need you ^j^

Uncle Mike, I can't tell you how much I miss you. You were such a fun person. Always laughing and joking around. What I remember most is your smile, how it could light up a room... and also your Spanish "accent." Lol!!!! You were such a goofball :) I will always love you and you'll always have a special place in my heart!! Love and miss you...

 ~ To Michael, who's eyes finally cleared enough to see his real priorities in this life. He blessed me with our two beautiful daughters, for which I will forever be in his debt. Our family was fractured, but I'm grateful that we'd begun to make peace with each other and that the four of us were able to put some pieces back in place before he was taken away. Michael, you have always been very loved and you will always be very missed... ~~ ♥ ~  Shelly
