I wanted to let the family know how sorry I am for your loss. I am still in shock as I’m sure all of you are as well. Even though things ended up the way they did, it still feels in my heart that we are all still family. When I 1st met Mike, I was TERRIFIED of him. He was very intimidating. The more I got to know him the more I found out what a softy he was. He would have done anything in the world for the people he loved! Always smiling and joking everytime I saw him. Very protective of all of his girls! He will most definetly be missed in All of our lives and never forgotten! We love you!
Vicki and family, I am very sorry about your loss. You were a great sister to him Vicki and I know you loved him very much. I’ll pray that God gives your family peace and comfort.

So let me reword that: Thnx to the treat! But yeah Thnkx for spending time to go over this, I am strongly about this and adore reading more on this topic. If possible, as you grow expertise, might you mind updating your blog site with more details? It is actually extremely of great help for me. Big thumb up because of this writing!
You could definitely see your skills in the paintings you write. The world hopes for even more passionate writers such as you who aren’t afraid to mention how they believe. All the time follow your heart.
