God saw Michael getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around him and whispered "come to me." With tearful eyes we watched , and saw him pass away. Although we loved him dearly, we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead. ________________________________ From: Jill Hammond <3jmhamm...@clearwire.net> To: Anna & Jim <jnawil...@roadrunner.com>; Annie <annielyman1...@yahoo.com>; Becky & Steve <mcsmi...@adelphia.net>; Beth & Greg <g...@comcast.net>; Bob & Beverly <b.doerfl...@gmail.com>; Boyd <b...@boydbryant.com>; Carole Matteson <carolematte...@hotmail.com>; Char Brower <charsreti...@hotmail.com>; Cheryl Hammond <i...@todaydata.com>; Cindy Dunn <cdunn53...@aol.com>; Craig & Candi <bur...@comcast.net>; Craig Fiore <cr...@ultra6.eskimo.com>; fi...@dhs.gov; David and Patty Brooks <blueba...@verizon.net>; David Gay <raega...@yahoo.com>; Dennis & Pam <burpee...@msn.com>; Earl Fordham <earl.ford...@gmail.com>; Elaine Boos <elaineb...@bellsouth.net>; Eric & Eri <ericshamm...@hotmail.com>; Fred & Susan <graceann1...@charter.net>; Gil & Mari <cdav...@dc.rr.com>; James Fulmer <jedi...@gmail.com>; Jan Hlavaty-LaPosa <janet.hlavaty-lap...@dhs.gov>; Jim and Bobbi <jimbobk...@msn.com>; Johanna <mjber...@verizon.net>; Judy & Karl <romocharlo...@hotmail.com>; Keenan <kee...@seattlegeek.net>; Kendra <kwa...@comcast.net>; Lenny Lisa <len.l...@verizon.net>; Lisa <l...@lisalundt.com>; Lynn & Jade <lynn.mari...@pfpa.mil>; Mari <wordfromwis...@smtel.com>; marie swanson <swansonbythe...@comcast.net>; Mica Ward <m...@detech.net>; Mike & Nancy <mmccallis...@soundandsea.com>; Nancy <npurcell1...@yahoo.com>; Noah <n...@noahconrad.com>; Pat Allegretti <paa...@gmail.com>; Pat and Corky <pjgren...@hotmail.com>; Pat Doebele <grandmap...@comcast.net>; Pat Massey <patrick.mas...@dhs.gov>; Paula <paula.lazz...@attachmate.com>; PJ <pjn...@yahoo.com>; Ron <ron.brook...@att.net>; Sally <sa...@bsorenson.com>; Sarah Bell-Schell <maeb...@vandals.uidaho.edu>; Scott Hamilton <scotthamil...@live.com>; Sharon & Steve <pianica...@comcast.net>; Sheri Meyer <sheme...@cisco.com>; Steve & Gail <crescentc...@nwi.net>; Steve and Jo <stevejojohn...@msn.com>; Susan & Ted Roth <susanema...@mchsi.com>; Tmic <tmic-list@eskimo.com>; Tom & Deb <t...@ddoel.com>; vanessa Quinn <vanessa.qu...@dhs.gov>; Wayne <wme...@ci.everett.wa.us>; Zsolt & Patty <zdor...@comcast.net> Sent: Thu, August 26, 2010 1:52:18 PM Subject: [TMIC] update on Michael Hello Family and Friends, Michael slipped peacefully away yesterday evening at 9:30 p.m. He is now in a much better place.
