I’m so sorry. My deepest sympathy.
Micheal was always very funny and sweet. Friends with his sister Ann grew
up with her spent many nights there, Micheal was always bugging us and getting on our nerves but always in a good way. Wouldn’t give up those memories for anything. Always had a fun time growing up and spending time at their house.
He might be gone but never forgotten.
Our deepest condolences to his family.
Love Donald & Lora Goodman
