Heavy Heart for Uncle Mike

Today I heard news that one of the most inspirational people I have ever encountered is losing the battle he has fought so valiantly. Uncle Mike you are one of the true men I have met in my life. In the two times I was privileged to talk with you and meet you I could see the glow of your soul and the faith you had in life, in god and in people. You did not deserve this circumstance. Instead of giving up you fought harder than anyone probably would have. You and your wife are the true definition of fighters, you didn't surrender and even now, with the most recent news you still aren't giving up your fight. You are loved by so many and you have impacted so many lives. One day I hope to be able to say I am anywhere near the man you and your Brother are. He doesn't deserve to go through this at all, no one in your family does. You have touched my life profoundly. You showed me the value of life, that it is too short to live wrong, that no tomorrow is guaranteed. You deserve many many tomorrow's but god may have another plan. You will continue to be in my prayers as will your wife and your whole family. I wish I could be the man that you are because the man that you are is superior, it is rare. I wish I could  gotten to know you better because I think that I could learn so much more from you. You are a great man and I hope for nothing more than for you to know how you have affected me and so many others Uncle Mike. There may be a day where you are gone, whether sooner or later, but there will not be a single day that goes by where you or your impact could ever be forgotten. You will always be with us in our hearts and in our minds. You are so deeply loved by so many. I am sorry you have had to go through this all.

Remembered Always, Loved Eternally.
