Re: [TMIC] Mike Hammond
Debbie - thank you so much for posting this. The article really touched me. I knew Mike was a wonderful man, but I did not know of his many accomplishments in life. Mike and I had emailed a number of times, and we discovered that we lived and worked not far from each other in Wash state for many years (before I moved to Idaho 4 yrs ago). I hope his wife Jill and the rest of the family are doing well. He touched many lives.

We buried my brother today. It was a nice military funeral. Mike was in the Navy back in the 60's. Anyway, I wanted to thenk each and every one of you who supported me. I thought about sending thank you nores individually, but they would have become repetetive after awhile, so I thought a blanket thank you would suffice. Ya know, we're all connected in one way or another, but as you get older, and people around you start to die off, it gets a little harder to take. Especiallt when they're your brother or sister, and they're younger than you. First, you're there when they're born, then you're there when they die. Everything starts to come back when family is around, and the memories sometime become overwhelming. In any case, my heat felt thanks goes out to all of you. Semper Fi Gunny
Re: [TMIC] Mike
I can relate to everything you say here Gunny. I am finding the old family memories overwhelming right now also. Family vacations, little trips to the beach, telling a silly joke that made my Mom laugh. It is too hard to think about these things..but I can't help it, and all I can do is sigh or cry. I hope the memories become easier for both of us as time passes. I'm sure your brother knew, and knows that you love him. Kevin bgunny7...@aol.com wrote: We buried my brother today.

Re: [TMIC] Mike
Gunny, A big salute goes out to you and your brother...from another brother in arms.. I can't even imagine what it must have been like to have to bury your younger brother...I don't even know what to say... All the same old condolences have been said and what more can be said. Just know that my thoughts are with you and keep the good memories of your brother in mind... My best...

Re: [TMIC] Mike
Gunny, I know this has been a heavy heart day...my thoughts are with you and your family. As we age, the losses seem to make a bigger imprint on our lives, and especially if it's one younger that you grew up with!! I think your blanket letter was most appropriate and appreciated.. as you know this family has been with you in spirit and we are all well aware how hard this day has been without trying to write each of us. Write when you need to scream! We'll all be here for you!

Re: [TMIC] Mike
Gunny, You are a heck of a guy and special in many ways.You are right, we all are connected with TM and each with their supportive families and friends. It is never easy to have to give up a loved one - like losing a piece of your heart. Hang in there, you are a strong person.
