Michael loved life and lived it to the fullest. He did more in his short 27 years than most do in a full lifetime. He will be missed terribly by all those whose lives he touched.

Dear Tom and Bette,
Just a note to tell you that we have Mike, you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
Our boys had a wonderful relationship. I know that Nick will carry the sadness of Mike's death and the joy of their friendship in his heart forever.
I'm sending this photo, which you may not have, taken when we spent Thanksgiving in New York City 2004. Mike had dinner with us. We had a great time, visited his apartment and went out in the evening with their group of friends.
Mike's contribution to the Thanksgiving dinner was olives and cheese and crackers for appetizers. (cause for lots of laughs)
We are so thankful that we got to know your son. He touched man lives as was evidenced by the beautiful memorial service.
Love and prayers
JoAnn and Ted Deacon
