I have loved you for so long. I will forever cherish the talks and prayers we shared. You never failed to tell me how much you loved God and your family. Your tough times are over and I rejoice that you've crossed the finish line. I saw a butterfly this morning and then felt the soft breeze.. I felt in an instant that you have seen the face of Jesus. I'll love you forever and keep you in my prayers.. this is not goodbye.. just a see you soon sweetheart..

Man I hate thinking that your not here. And the last time we talked never would I have thought it would've been the last time. You were the older brother that I never had. I remember skipping school (daily) just to come chill with you. At the time I would have rather been hanging out with you. And I'm glad I did, for the fact that we spent time together. I've always enjoyed your company. Man your laugh was contagious. Majority of the time you could enlighten a whole room. Bro you enlightened me so much, I will always love and miss you bro. Man this here was so hard to type. I really don't want to say goodbye.

Mike .. I've replayed the many times you've said "AMBEEERR" when first seeing me so many times. Huge smile, arms open wide. And how your eyes would just light way up any time you got excited about something or heard good news. Even news that wasn't always that great, you still always had a "Well.. at least .." to find the silver lining. Your laugh was loud, one a person could hear from down the block. I always HEARD you way before I ever saw you. I remember that night we sat up whispering but laughing hysterically because as hard as we tried to just be quiet, even our whispers were too loud! We couldn't even whisper right.. gosh. You were always a safe place. I know as we grew up, and I moved away to get away from people I needed to be away from, we lost track and moved on with life to a degree but you were never someone I stopped thinking about. They always say the good one's go early, and I have found that to be a super painful truth. Physically moved on, but absolutely not forgotten. You are and you will always be SO loved, Mike.
