When I look at the names of those who have passed on I can remember their faces and incidences when ours lives pathes crossed. While I didn't know any of them well I still feel a sadness and loss that is hard to describe. Maybe it's because it could have just as easily been me and I think of all the living and love I would have missed.I remember Mike as a fun loving,up for any adventure, kind of guy with mischief in his eyes and a smile on his face.
