Wow, there are no words to describe how much of a shock this still is that you are not here. I remember getting a call from one of your friends saying how u passed away. I got so mad at him I thought he was joking and I hung up on him. But come to find out it was not a joke at all! I can still remember the last time I talked to you and how you were sooo excited for camp and how you wanted to see me so badly but I never could cuz I was so busy with work. I regret that so much now, I hope u know how much our friendship meant to me. You weren’t like the other guys, you were so sweet and loving and kind. You never let little things bug you. You always had a positive attitude towards everything. I am so glad I met u mike. I know you’re looking down on me everyday and watching me!
Ali & Michael before Prom
I remember the first time we met. It was at caribou coffee I was with Jessica and u and Danny and Clay wanted to meet us there. I didn’t really know u but u told Jessica that you thought I was cute. We talked everyday since then. You were so caring and so nice. I knew u were different from everyone else. That’s why I loved having you as a friend. We knew each other for about a year and it felt like a decade. We hung out sooo many times; we went to Homecoming and Prom together. Those memories, I will cherish forever. I will never forget how good of a guy and a friend you were.
I remember always having hour-long conversations with you about everything. I would tell u my problems and you would give me advice. You never complained once about how I kept going on about something. We both know I do that from time to time. I can still hear ur goofy laugh I would say something dumb or funny, I can hear you saying "ali just chill outttt"! I miss that, all I want to do is hear ur voice and see u again, but I can’t and it sucks. When I am having a bad day or gettin frustrated easily I just close my eyes and I just see your face and hear your voice and im okay again. That’s how much you and our friendship had impacted me.
The last time I really saw u was Prom. Wow, I was so excited for it. I took forever to find a dress - I wanted to look perfect. I got my hair one and my make-up done, found the perfect dress. I was all set; you looked so handsome, I was soo happy that night. I had the best time and it was so much fun with you. I still have the corsage that you gave me in my room. I will never get rid of it, every time I look at it, it reminds me of you and I just smile cuz you always made me happy!
As you can see Mike and me had a really special friendship, I miss him so much, as I am sure everyone else does. There will always be a piece of him in my heart. There is not one day that I don’t think about Mike. I think about him everyday, he is always in the back of my mind. I try to live each day like he did, I try not to get annoyed so easily and not so snappy. I try not to get mad over little things; I also try to cherish every moment. I just want to thank you Mike for being there for me and being such a good friend I will never forget you and your memory will always live on!
Love you and miss you Mikey
