My Hero

My brother, Mike lost his battle with Merkel Cell Carcinoma on July 19, 2008. What a champ he was. He never complained, but always fought so hard with determination and dignity until he couldn't fight anymore.

Just to give you an example of how loved he was, the viewing, which was suppose to go from 6 - 8 pm, went until 10:00 pm and that was because the mortuary had to lock the doors. His funeral was absolutely packed and people came from everywhere to pay their respects to Mike and the family. What a tribute!!!!! I can honestly say that I haven't seen anyone with this many friends except maybe President Hinckley.

I love him so much and I will miss him terribly, but I know he is out of his pain now and smiling down on all of us. God must have needed something upholstered in heaven. Maybe there are hot rods in heaven. I hope so!
