Today you have been gone for 3 years. . .

August 17, 2013
The Day God Took You Home When days are sad and lonely and everything's going wrong We seem to hear you whisper "cheer up and carry on." Everytime we see your picture You smile and seem to say "Don't cry I'm only sleeping, We'll meet again someday." You bid noone a last farewell Nor even said good-bye You were gone before we knew it and only God knows why A million times we've missed you A million times we've cried If love along could have saved you You never would have died In life we loved you dearly In death we love you still You had a place in our hearts no one could ever fill It broke our hearts to loose you But you didn't go alone For parts of us went with you The day God took you home.

My beloved brother...

August 17, 2012
It feels like it's been forever, since I've seen your face. I miss you so much, in my heart you will always hold a special place. All the good times we've shared, the memories we've made. Everyday I think about them all, From my mind they will never fade. How I wish we could walk arm in arm, hand in hand, heart to heart. If I would've known that it would end like this, I thought we'd never have to be apart. You were always the light at the end of my storm.   The star in my sky. You were a blessing, you were perfect in my eye. So many questions I still have to ask, my best friend gone. Why? You were too young to go, it didn't have to be like this, you didn't have to die. From now until the end of my life you will be on my mind, every minute, every hour, every day. I love you, I miss you, and this is how it will stay...

I'm sorry mom...

August 17, 2012
I’m sorry mom, for the things I put you through I’m sorry mom, for not doing the things you wanted me to do  I’m sorry mom, for leaving you so soon I’m sorry mom, for that call you got that afternoon Leaving you was, the last thought on mind Just like so many, I guess it was just my time I thought about you, the last minutes of my life I thought about my Lucas. But momma I can imagine, how this must be for you Because I see you, when you are alone  When nobody else do I don’t want you to feel so much pain There’s really no one to blame Tell dad to stop grieving  I see his pain as well I almost didn’t make it in Ya'll know the life I live But I had a second chance And the Lord heard my prayer My life wasn’t taking instance I had time to repent I ask the lord to wash my sins And show me a better way He opens up new doors for me And here is where I stay So tell everyone who doubted me I made it anyway I’m sorry mom for leaving you, without saying goodbye I’m sorry mom for hurting you, I still see you cry I’m sorry mom, but be happy , I got my wings its true Something no one ever thought,  So the next time I see you crying, it’s my wing that will be holding you I’m so sorry mom, and I will always, always love you.

Mike today it has been 2 years since you have been gone. I hate to remember this day.. You are truly missed and it has been a big impact in our lives that you are not with us, the kids always ask why did u want to go live with the angels it's an hard to explain to them. I don't know what to say besides that we love and miss you so much! It isn't the same without u.

My First Christmas In Heaven

December 26, 2011

I've had my first Christmas in Heaven;

A glorious wonderful day!

I stood with saints of the ages,

Who found Christ, the Truth, and the Way.

 

I sang with the Heavenly choir;

Just think! I who longed so to sing!

And oh, what celestial music

We brought to our Saviour and King!

 

We sang the glad songs of redemption,

How Jesus to Bethlehem came,

And how they had called His name "Jesus",

That all might be saved through His name.

 

We sang once again with the angels,

The song that they sang that Blest Morn,

When shepherds first heard the glad story

That Jesus, the Saviour, was born.

 

Oh, how I wish you had been there;

No Christmas on earth could compare

With all the rapture and glory

We witnessed in Heaven so fair.

 

You know how I always loved Christmas;

It seemed such a wonderful day,

With all of my loved ones around me;

The children so happy and gay.

 

Yes, now I can see why I loved it,

And, oh, what a joy it will be,

When all of my loved ones are with me,

To share in the glories I see.

 

So dear ones on earth, here's my greeting;

Look up till the day dawn appears,

And, oh, what a Christmas awaits us,

Beyond all our partings and tears.

In honor and memory of those celebrating Christmas in heaven this year.

Happy 30th Birthday

November 12, 2011
My dear Uncle Michael, I can't see you but I know you can see us. We are not the little babies you remember us to be. We wish we had more time before we had to say good-bye. We will always remember the uncle that was always there for us. We will always remember our time together. There is one thing that I know will never change though, Is the love towards my dear uncle that has come. We will always have you near as we will always love you. Just remember that no matter where we are at Your little nieces and nephew will always be in your heart. As you will be forever be in our hearts. We love and miss you everyday! Happy Birthday Uncle Michael! Lucas, Izzy and Gabby

A different kind of feeling

August 17, 2011

1 year later & feeling a different kind of hurt. At 1st it was me being selfish, almost mad at you asking you why & why did it have to be one of my closet friends, but over the last year I have learned a lot about losing a close person in a tragedy such as this. I just want you to know that when I cry as I think about you, it not because I’m being selfish and want you here with us, but its because I think of this day, the few days after and what I had to see and hear and deal with. Seeing our friends at their darkest hour is what makes me cry. My family seeing what I was going thru in those days makes me cry. All the things we have talked about in the past about certain situations make me cry. The details of how this last year went down makes me cry. The fact that our last convo was not so good makes me cry. Don’t get me wrong I wish you could be here with us, but I have realized that you don’t belong here; you belong in heaven to watch over us, your heart was too big. You wanted to be there for everyone and to make everyone happy but you couldn’t, so you moved on to a place where you can do just that! Everyone looked up to, and now they literally have look up to you! I kind of wish I was up there with you, u don’t have to deal with nothing, no bills, stress, work, this shitty ass weather, the crazy ass people around, and this crazy crazy world. I don’t have one doubt in my mind that you are where you’re supposed to be…with the angels looking over.

I’m not going to lie, its been hard knowing that some people don’t hurt the same way as others about the same situation, & how some people just cant take other peoples pain & hurt into consideration. Everyone has dealt with this differently. Some have pulled away from us, some just don’t give an F about anything or anyone, some talk about you as if you were still here, some still cry till this day, some just remember the good times and laugh, some just don’t talk about you at all. I guess that’s their way of dealing with all this. I never understood that & its kind of shocking to be honest with you. I guess this is one of those convos that I would have to save for the cemetery. LOL The end result is all the same though; we are all affected in ways that we never thought. I know one thing is that your memory will live on forever with me. Nothing can change the memories I had with you, and no one will ever understand what you meant to me! I love you so much and miss you more than you will ever know! I pray to god to keep my memories alive and not fade away. That’s all I have left! L

With love Rita Shaba

Re Re, Reet,

August 17, 2011

Today is the day i lost my best friend. 1 year already ha charcs! It seems like we Were just were riding together last night, or we just got done putting your or my Desktop together. Last favor you asked felt like i just talked to you, yes i will Co-sign for the speedboat, if you come back i'll be the only signer. I still remember when we used to jump the fence to get to your house, which i slept over like everyday. Remember how we used to take a pack out of each carton of ciggs that your parents kept in their room for the pontiac store, lol. Like idiots, Did we think they wouldn't find out or some shit. how bout when we used to hustle danny and his sis in tasbeer, haha, and steal uncle mikes Honda to joyride when we were like 14. or when i almost burned out your corvette clutch bc you were teaching me to use a manual, you used to yell at me like you were gonna kill my azz. Those were the days Brother. I used to love riding with your crazy azz, here i am doing a buck-20 and I still hear you flying by me at dam near 180mph, You always had a lead foot, even a lead hand. I still cant believe your gone Charcs, wtf, you never slipped up, and the only accident had to be tragic, wtf..I'm not worried about it, I know GOD has plans for you, and that you were too good for this place, so he took you away Angel! There will never be a bullet big enough to pierce a hole as big as I have in my Heart because I Miss you soooo much and have so much to ask and tell you, You were and always will be a Real-True-Genuine Brother, till i see you again. On Your Birthday I'm Gonna Get you Rocked Yousif. Love You Forever Azizi! Look After your Family and loved ones, I don't even have to ask. I know your heart is pure, even if you had an enemy, You wouldn't wish harm on him/her!!! ♥ you Mike Forever, can't wait to see you at the gates. R.I.P. IF GOD Isn't working you too hard. or should i say working to acomplish your goals which you always did flawlessly! Your One In a Trillion and would be so blessed if you sent me a friend half as loyal as you!!

Happy Birthday

November 12, 2010

Michael I haven't been able to come on to the website to write anything because everytime I come on I have a melt down. But I can promise you I will try to come on often and say hello. I really don't need to write things because you know I come and spend time with you often.I come make sure your resting place is nice and clean for you. I hope you like the wreath I made for your BIRTHDAY TODAY of all your family and friends. I made the wreath with pictures because I didn't want you to get bored or feel lonely. This way when we are not there in person, you are surround by all the ones that LOVE YOU. You had a busy day today. All your friends came out to see you and the brought tons of flowers.

As I am writing this the house is filled with people keeping mom and dad busy so that they don't have a break down. I Love you and miss you. Tomorrow is Joeys birthday and it will be just as hard because we always celebrated yours and Joeys birthday together. We always celebrated it on the 12th or 13th so this year we will have a cake tomorrow with yours and Joeys name but only Joey will be here to blow the candle. We had a cake at the cemetery today and we had to have one at home because since Luke came into our lives all of our birthday's became Lucas's birthday. He has to blow out the candle and cut it. I wish you were here to blow and cut the cake with Lucas.

Today Lucas took the bus home and was dropped off at your house for the first time. He couldn't take the bus before today because, it was upsetting to him that you would not be there to pick him up at the bus. When we registered him in school and he found out that he was going to ride the bus and be dropped off at your house he was so excited. First day of school he told teacher Michael will pick me up at the bus and I had to explain to him that you were unable to pick him up.He loved spending time with you. I know that when he need you a few months ago you were still there by his side, you let us know by 1018. 

Mom Is a mess she is up at 6 a.m  in the morning watching mass or in the dark downstairs  having her moments before we wake up. She trys to be strong for us and not have a major melt down in front of us but I can't blame here if she does. She gave birth to you and we only got the title of brother or sister and it is hard for me so I can only imagine what it feels for her.

I will see you tomorrow because the kids are trying to come into my room and I don't want them to see me a mess.

I love you and miss you so much. You will always be remembered and have a special place in my heart.

October 29, 2010
I think about you all the time,
And everyday it hurts to cry.
So much has happened in my life,
I'm not sure how hard to try.

Tears are falling constantly,
My heart hurts everyday.
I think about your beautiful smile,
That I pray I see again someday.

The sweet smell of your scent,
Has slowly faded away.
But all your helpful teachings,
Are always here to stay.

I can't express how much you taught me,
So much I can't explain.
All the times I can remember,
Never once heard you complain.

So many hearts were broken,
The day God called you home.
It seems as though each one of us,
Were left to survive alone.

I know there was a reason,
That you had to leave.
To keep us in your watchful eyes,
And look down from above the skies... 
 
Love Re

Guardian Angel Watching over me

September 23, 2010

So, I still don’t understand any of this. One-minute Im fine, one minute, I’m coo coo. I don’t think I will ever understand. The last letter was me thanking you for everything and just being there all the time. After 8-17-10 I didn’t think you were going to be there for me anymore. Everyone said differently, they said you would be an angel on my shoulder watching out and still looking over me in spirit. For some reason I didn’t want to believe that, and was not ok with that! You proved me wrong!!! Like you slapped me in the face.

Mannnn, there is so much I want to tell you about, UUFffff but, between this page, me coming to visit you once a week, and talking to you thru the air (myself) you pretty much know everything. So I’m going to start with Saturday night. Marvin had his 15 yr Annv. Do you know how hard it was to go there and not see you at the door & ask you if you wanted anything to drink? I walked in crying and walked out crying. Of course drank in between as I was crying LOL. It turned out to be a nice party. I wont get in details right now. But this is what brought me to your page and to write this to you! That night ended badly for me. (Again I will give you all the details when I come to visit you) But I will say this, everything you taught me about the law worked in my favor that night. I swear you should have seen me boyyyyy! LOL You know me always trying to win arguments and trying to be one step ahead of everyone & everything and won’t stop until I am. That night I used your skills, tricks, & trades as if you were there telling me exactly what to do & say… It kind of freaked me out, because I know you had something to do with that miracle that happened that night. There was no way I walked out of that alone with out you right there to help me! Like you always did! Like you heard me talking to you that very moment and you responded. Every time I think about it I get the chills. And whoever knows about it, is also in WOW. Well Mike, now I know that you are always STILL going to be there for me no matter what, and that you are and angel watching over me & all your loved ones. I just needed a reality check I guess. And you couldn’t have picked a better day or situation, cuz that day was special & you would be the only one that could have helped me.

I’m trying really hard to be as strong as you remember me, but every time I talk to one of the boys I cry because they remind me of you, or every time I see your picture I pause everything I’m doing and try to embrace it every time, or when I hear MIKE I look twice and draw a blank when its not you! You were always telling me that I was a very strong person, and not matter what was going on that I handled it well. How am I doing now? Because to be honest with you this may be one of the worst things that has happened to me, besides losing my father and that I was prepared for, and had time to accept it. You were like my wall, I had no filter when it came to you and not too long ago, I was at your house telling you how effed up my life was and how I couldn’t take it anymore, and just broke down. Can you imagine how I am feeling now? Well don’t, cuz its not about me, I have to stop being selfish! In these types of situations everyone wants to be selfish at first for their own reasons, but over time that will change, so don’t hold it against anyone that has been selfish. I’ve been told time heals all wounds…and also been told that there is too much time cant not erase. I don’t know what to believe anymore to make me feel better.

I also want to share this with you. Remember that you had promised me something and you never got around to it cuz you were remodeling the store at the time? Well I want you to know that one of your dearest friends is keeping that promise. As soon as I told him, didn’t even hesitate and said he was going to keep your word. I’m sure you understand why I asked him. It just more sense for him to be the chosen one! LOL

Ok I’m rambling again! I will be coming to visit you soon, and tell you in details how you literally saved my life from a lot of drama, headache, and money. LOL

Love you & miss you & THANK YOU for always and still being there for me!

Mike, Michael, Mikey Described down to one word: Genuine

September 7, 2010

I never thought I would be putting these words together…never thought I would ever have to see my friends the way I have in the last couple of weeks, never thought I would have to deal with a greater loss than my father. L But just like you always used to say “never say never”. I still don’t know where to start, I’m sitting here trying to put thoughts together…I CANT!! I wasn’t prepared for this. And even if I begin to start, im afraid I won’t finish, you know how much I like to talk. LOL But I will say this…THANK YOU!

Thank you for being there all the times I needed to cry, laugh, yell, scream, & talk to someone. Thank you for all knowledge you have given to take with me about this so called thing... “LIFE” Thank you for bailing me out that day my car got impounded, LOL (remember you picked me up in Pete’s car and there was not a so good surprise in it? LOL) Thank you waking me up early in the morning’s cuz you needed someone to talk to! "Aehchee" Thank you for always believing in me when I didn’t in myself & having confidence in me when I felt the whole world was against me. Thank you for standing up for me on more than one occasion. Thank you for letting me be there for you at your lowest lows, and letting me give you advise when you needed it. Thank you for always knowing you can count on me no matter what. Thank you for opening up to me, and showing me what type of person you are deep down inside. Thank you for giving me hope on the future that things will get better even though I used to think otherwise. Thank you for always being in a good mood & trying to make me laugh when I was having shitty day. Thank you for all visits @ LA Insurance when you and I were both bored, the minutes you used to run up on my phone bill, all from the hours of discussions we would have. Thank you for all the times you have yelled @ me for doing stupid things because you always wanted the best for me, even though I would give you shit right back! LOL then call me like nothing just happened! LOL Thank you for talking me out of doing stupid and unnecessary things…(There were so many! LOL) Thank you for all the memories you have given me, for letting me share & be there, for the laughs, the cries, the good times, the bad times, the friends, the fights, the fun nights, the discussions, the debates, the music, the cds, the movies, the Arabic songs, the translating, the nickname “RE”…. UUFfffff Who’s going to call me that now?

Thank you for being there with me & all of your loved ones @ a time like this. Thank you for being there with me all night long watching me work on your posters & giving me the strength knowing how bad it was kiling me to do it, but I have never let you down, and I wasnt gonna start now. Down to the very last piece, I knew you were there…Thank you for all the little reminders that you surround me with to let me know that your there!! Thank you for letting me put such hurtful & sorrowful words in such a beautiful manner towards you…your life!!!

Thank you in advance for being and angel above all of us. Thank you watching & guiding us thru. Thank you for being with me in spirit, Thank you for making me that much stronger as a person to be able to deal with a greater loss. So basically…THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU!! All those thank you’s are Mike just being Mikey. I am so thankful & will be eternally grateful to have had someone like you have such a great impact on my life. So at times like this, I can be that much more thankful for everything around me. I cannot thank you enough Mike, I could go on forever but instead I will let the rest live in a piece of my heart forever.

I will always remember your beautiful smiling face. I miss you more than you know & love you forever! & its not goodbye, its I’ll see ya later buddy!!

 
            With Love,

THE MOST GENUINE ANGEL!

September 6, 2010

Michael, Mikey, Karchy and Charcoal-these were the so many nicknames you were given. Michael where does one start with all the memories you have left us all with and the so many lives you have touched. I myself start back 16 years ago where we were brought up together in Southfield. It seems just like yesterday where we had the streets all to ourselves playing hockey, riding our bikes and then you and Brian giving us rides on your mo-pads! We still remained friends years later when our families moved to West Bloomfield and we hit our teens and those days will never be forgotten! Michael you were a best friend not only to Brian but to me also which I thought was so beautiful. I will never forget how I would always go dial your number and it would always be disconnected and you would call everyone to tell them your new number(everyone knew that habit of yours).  In the winter months we would tag along in your pickup truck while you plowed the streets of West Bloomfield, wherever we were when it involved you it was a good time because you were always so hyper and put on that so amazing smile of yours! There wasn't a time in the world where you didn’t stop EVERYTHING or ANYTHING you were doing to help another individual out, and that’s the man we are all going to remember and miss so very much.  I remember when I met Jeff I was even that much happier knowing he was your first cousin, and so honored to have you be a part of our wedding. As I always attempt to put on my wedding tape I stop myself and come to tears because as much as I want to see you again, I am so heartbroken that you are really gone. My mom feels as if she has lost a son like her own(brians brother).  Brian is so lost without you but I know deep down in my heart you are his angel and will never leave him (just like I use to always tell you "your brians realest friend"). Michael you have such an amazing family. When I see your sisters, I think of three beautiful, respectful and loving girls. I hate seeing them like this but I love going to visit them.  When I see your mom I just want to keep hugging her and comforting her with stories of you. Michael was such a special person and it's very difficult to come to terms with the fact that he died suddenly, but now we have him as our so very SPECIAL angel. 

                                   Love you Mike,

                              your "lil sis" Angela Karmo-Zeer

Michael,

I don't know if their is enough websites, facebooks, pictures, and memories to describe how much you meant to me and everyone else around you. Your life is indescribable, and if anyone had even 5 minutes with you they would always remember that smile that lit  you up even if you felt the worse. And of course the look after spilling something on your masterpiece, lol.  I know I will never forget the numerous times you were there for me. Even when someone close to me passed, you were sitting right next to me letting me know I was going to be okay, And regardless, I know deep in my heart that your looking out for everyone from heaven, the same way you did down here. You just earned your wings, got promoted, and flew to heaven to get the big picture. Helping god build the gates of heaven and greeting all the new people with your enthusiasm and beautiful smile. Thank you for always motivating me, even when you yelled at me, lol. Especially of course when I motivated you, and i used to love to watch you build things and learn, and then build things in my own house !! Overall i will always treasure all the moments, the arguments, the motivations, the laughter and especially the love you showed me. These memories will give us the faith to go on, and you be the Angel just making sure everyone isn't in harms way!! We love you so much!!!
 
RIP Michael Karcho
 
Love Shanel Cholagh

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
(Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!)

Michael,

You’ve just walked on ahead of me

And I’ve got to understand

You must release the ones you love

And let go of their hand.

I try and cope the best I can

But I’m missing you so much

If I could only see you

And once more feel your touch.

Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me

Don’t worry I’ll be fine

But now and then I swear I feel

Your hand slip into mine.

You’ve just walked on ahead of me

And I’ve got to understand

You must release the ones you love

And let go of their hand.

I try and cope the best I can

But I’m missing you so much

If I could only see you

And once more feel your touch.

Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me

Don’t worry I’ll be fine

But now and then I swear I feel

Your hand slip into mine.

An Angel To Watch Over Us All

September 5, 2010

I am sitting here while the kids nap and just thinking and crying. I can only do this when I am alone or the kids get so confused and scared. I know if you were here you wouldn’t want them scared. I love you so much and at the same time I am so mad at you and I can’t even yell at you. Izzy goes around saying “Stupid Ass” and I think about how you taught her that and how she continually repeats it. She brings a smile to my face when she says it and I don’t even yell at her about it anymore. How do I tell her she will never see Uncle Michael again when I can’t even believe it myself? You will never call or visit her again. How do I tell Gabby her godfather is not here with us anymore? It was only a few weeks ago we were baptizing her and you calmed her down when she cried. You rocked her to sleep and kept her calm through the entire mass. 

We are so lost without you. I would have called you to help us with our project in the house. Uncle Mike’s water tank just went out last week during your funeral and he was so lost. He would have called you to fix it or go buy him a new one. You would have had it working in hours instead we tried calling a handy man and dad went and helped him empty it out as it was exploding and leaking water everywhere. The kids couldn’t even bath since they found out it was broken at midnight. I think you were up above watching them and laughing and saying “I have to get you guys to learn how to do it by yourself now”. In your honor Uncle Mike installed a new one with the help of someone else. He must have remembered some stuff you taught him because he refused to call a handy man. You were his handy man. Well needless to say he has hot water now.
 
Mom and Dad are in so much pain right now. They don’t know what to do with themselves. Dad can’t even go to the store as he will see you everywhere with all the changes you made this past year. Mom keeps saying I can’t look at this house all of Michael’s hard work and he isn’t here. A day hasn’t passed that Mom and Dad haven’t cried. I am so scared that they will make themselves sick over missing and wanting you here with us. I keep telling myself you will watch over them and keep them safe and healthy as you did when you were here. You have left such an empty spot in their hearts as they never imagined they would bury a child as they believed they would age and die before any of their children.
 
Joanna is walking around angry, upset with everyone and just snapping at everyone, even saying the stupidest things ever. If you were here you would be arguing about everything and anything. I think she misses you so much and doesn’t know how to cope with it. She is so lost without hearing you call mom everyday and visiting the kids before you went to work. I would give anything to hear you two argue right now and in the end it was all okay because you told each other how much you loved each other.
 
Monica is lost and can’t stand being around anyone these days. She is constantly finding something to do so she isn’t home while everyone is visiting Mom and Dad to help them through this hard time. She has kept her self busy trying to get your house cleaned up and ready to sell it as she can’t keep it as you two have so many memories putting that house together. That was project that you two did together. You guys gutted out the whole house and remodeled the entire house, created a new floor plan nothing from before even exists. This was you guys investment home, either you would sell it for a profit in the future or it would be a piece a property that you two would build mom and dad their dream home. She has everything in the house immaculate as you left it behind and has started to have someone complete some projects you had started. We all wonder how can be gone and we will never see you again.
 
Joseph just called me as I am writing this and wanted to talk to Izzy. I told him she is sleeping and he said he would call back as he is on his way to work. He is in so much pain and doesn’t know what to do. He is trying so hard to do what you would do. Joseph is visiting and talking to you everyday at the cemetary. I have only visited you once as I can't take visiting my brother  and not seeing him.  Joseph is so lost and I can only hope you watch over him and lead him into the right direction.
 
Nash went to your house earlier this week and he couldn’t believe to see the Keepsake Box we gave you for baptizing Gabby was already set up with pictures and sitting there in the family room. Nash came home was so torn up on we have lost a wonderful man that had everything and so much more. Nash kept saying I can’t believe how much he changed in the house its nothing like when they first bought it. It’s so different since the last time he saw it a year ago. He mentioned the hardwood floors that you put in all by yourself.
 
Nash and I talked about how you did everything you put your mind to do. What a strong man you were and are and how you are so missed. Lots say you and I are so stubborn and alike in that way so much; We always make sure we get what we want. We never stop until we get it, is it we are so hard headed or just motivated.
 
Lucas is just playing everyday not understanding why you haven’t called or visited him. I tell him you are an angel that is flying in the sky between the clouds and making sure he is safe all the time. Gosh when we heard what had happened Nash, Monica and I rushed to the store and left the kids with Ban. Lucas told Ban with tears that he thinks he was never going to see you again. Ban tried to comfort him and explain to him that he has a guardian angel and that Michael will always be there for him. Isabella is so young and has no idea what is going on and all she knows is she hasn’t seen or heard you in weeks. She tells mom “Michael” when the phone rings or she walks around just saying “Stupid Ass”. She doesn’t understand what as happened at all. I will always keep you alive with the kids. The kids will always know about Uncle Michael.  Lucas, Isabella and Gabriella will always know who Uncle Michael was and how much he loves them.
 
I know you will be there to watch and keep them safe at all times. You will be watching Lucas during his surgery and make sure he recovers and comes home safe to us. I keep telling myself that God took you from us so early so you can watch the kids through the hard times they have ahead of them.  Lucas and Isabella need you so much now and I know you will make sure they are safe.
 
Michael, I love you and miss you so much. I hope you were greeted by our grandparents and they have showed you through the heavenly gates as you will greet us all one day in the future. I hope your new home will make you as happy as you were here with us. Please guide Mom and Dad through their pain into a safe place where they can keep you close to them.
 
I LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL THE TIME!

MIKE IS ALWAYS WITH US............

I'm Still Here

Friend, please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
And within your heart I long to stay.
 

 

My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
As long as you keep me alive in your heart.
 

 

I'll never wander out of your sight-
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach-
I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.
 

 

I'm the colourful leaves when Autumn's around
And the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.
 

 

I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,
And you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.
 

 

When you start thinking there's no one to love you,
You can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,
And you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.
 

 

I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
And the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend, I'm every place

Love u All Always

REST IN PEACE BROTHER.
