Mike, so many memories flood my mind when I think about you. Camping, chasing us girls with bugs, laughing at and with us, fishing stories, book reviews and much more! One funny is the time when we were very young and lots of us went to the shed at our farm (I don’t remember which one) we light up cigarettes. Yep, all of us did. Then the wrath came down cos we got caught. LMBO! I chuckle every time I think of that. Mom and your Mom found us. Whew! We survived though. You have now seen Jesus! What an incredible experience. I know you are rejoicing with friends and family who met you at the Pearly gates! So glad you are no longer in pain and will be joyful for all eternity. Your cuz, Vicki
