Hi Mike,

We think about you all the time. I'm sure you can hear the song Sydney made up for you when she's praying at night. Keep praying for Denise and the kids. Please keep giving Denise the strength and courage she needs when times are difficult. As you know, Denise is truly an amazing person (sister) her courage and strength to deal with this is astonishing. Please keep putting in a good word for her.

Well I just wanted to say hello.....It's nice to see your smiling face we sure do miss it. ;o)

Your Family

Hey Buddy-

Charlie and I were talkin about you the other day. Watched a small video clip that I have of you while up at Alpena. Both got a kick out of hearing your laugh again..

Days still don't go by where we aren't thinkin about you or telling a funny story about you.

Denise,

Thank you for your kind note. It means so very much.

I think about you and your family often. I hope that you all enjoy COPS Camp.

You are all in our prayers. You're right, it's not an easy journey and it is overwhelming at times - but we'll all make it. There's two guys up there who wouldn't want it any other way.

Take care.

I'm just thinking of you like I do most of the time. I come here everyday to see what's writtten and to feel my connection with you. We're busy with softball and baseball playoffs and the kids and I are getting ready for the COPS kids camp. We've been counting down the days since we're all looking forward it so much. I'm still missing you and loving you, boo.

Lord, be with my deceased dear one and with those who have so loved him in this world. Guide them to the light of Your eternal rest and peace, and console those of us who remain with Your strength and love. May all of us use this difficult time to become a source of support and comfort for one another. Amen.

Denise,
Hey lady, just wanted to stop by and see how everyone was doing. Hope you had a good 4th and you and kids were able to enjoy yourselves this year. It's nice making new memories for the kids to have but still a little sad that we're not making them with our hubbys. Its so hard to believe that Mike and Wayne have been gone 17 months tomorrow. Do you ever feel like some days it feels like a lifetime and other days it feels as if it just happened yesterday. I wonder if it will always be like that. I guess only time will tell. Well, take care and make sure you call if you come down to Florida. We take the kids to Disney or Universal. Enjoy the rest of your summer!!!!!!!

To the Scarbrough family,
I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking about your family and feel your pain. We met in D.C. and I had the privledge of spending some time with you. I was there with Mi-Cops.
Brian- WOW do you look like your brother! You told me you did, but man was I shocked when I saw Mike's picture. I hope that you are able to go to the COPS sibling retreat. It's an unbelievable experience that could help you in this whole crappy thing called "grief".
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Took the kids to the parade today...Robbin and her kids and my mom and dad were with us...we had a really great time. The kids and I were excited about going...it felt good to look forward to it, again. It was great seeing the kids have such a good time...wonderful to see them smiling and hear them laughing.

Amazingly, a group was there who were playing the drums and bagpipes. We were sitting close to the end of the parade so that when they had finished they stood directly across the street from us and continued to play for the rest of the parade...Robbin said that you must have put in a good word for us...We did get a laugh out of that.

I definitely look forward to and appreciate little things more now and am thankful that I can feel any bit of excitement again....going to Cedar Point tomorrow and we're looking forward to that too. Making new, happy, memories slowly, although, you're never far from my mind and heart. I love you, boo.

Happy 4th Mike

Saw this song in a reflection, explains it all


Waitin’ at a stop light yesterday
As a funeral procession made its way
Through the gates
I watched it roll up a winding road
Through a field of green
With white headstones
All in a row
And it made me think about where I’m at
On my not so straight and narrow path
All the generous and mostly undeserved
Blessing that I’ve had

I had an all-American mom and dad
Some of the coolest friends you could ever have
Found love I thought I’d never find
Sometimes I can’t believe this life is mine
And I’m not plannin’ on leavin’ yet
But the truth is you just never know
And if this is as good as it gets
Man, I think I’m good to go
I’m good to go

I said a prayer for the dearly departed
And the loved ones left broken hearted
Then traffic started
And I drove away a little more able
To see the good things on my table
And for that I’m grateful
‘Cause I’ve had my troubles and had my trials
I’ve hit the mark and I’ve missed by miles
Had days that I’ve been fightin’ mad
But the good times have more than
Outweighed the bad

Got to hold my newborn baby girl
And the hand of a man as he slipped from this world
I’ve laughed so hard I couldn’t stop
Seen the sunrise from a mountain top
And I’m not plannin’ on leavin’ yet
But the truth is you just never know
And if this is as good as it gets
Man, I think I’m good to go

Yeah I’ve been thinkin’ bout where I’m at
On my not so straight and narrow path
And I wouldn’t wanna change nothing about
This roll with the punches life I’ve had

Had an all-American mom and dad
Some of the coolest friends you could ever have
Found love I thought I’d never find
I can’t believe this life is mine
And I’m not plannin’ on leavin’ yet
But the truth is you just never know
And if this is as good as it gets
Man, I think I’m good to go
I’m good to go
I’m good to go
