I didn’t know Michael’s family, but I did know him. He was a great guy, straight shooter, friendly. I haven’t seen him in a while and missed him already. It’s very sad to know I’ll never see him again.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. May Jehovah, the God of all comfort, strengthen and comfort you with His promise to swallow up death forever, wiping the tears from our faces. (Isa. 25:8; 2Cor. 1:3) Peace to you during this difficult time.
