I miss you, Mike!


My Uncle Mike (McLeod) died Dec. 9, 2007. He died of cancer. Cancer is such an enemy! Mike is the reason I did Relay for Life this year! He was only 49 yrs old when he died . Mike was the kind of person most of us call "good people"! He would do anything for anyone, would give the shirt off his back if you needed it.... he NEVER did anything to hurt anyone! He was a very good person! He did not deserve to have cancer strike him like it did! HE had a FULL life ahead of him, but cancer robbed him of his life. WHY? WHY?????? We will NEVER know the answer as to why, we just know, he was a GREAT person, made an awesome impact on many lives..... And God chose to take him at a young age for His own reasons! Doesn't mean I'll stop missing Mike, I will always miss him! But, God has a reason for everything!

Mike has really been on my mind a lot lately, but tonight I was looking thru Crystal's photo album on myspace (Crystal, being my Aunt Debra's DIL) and Aunt Deb (my daddy's sister, and Mike's wife) was looking very BEAUTIFUL and HAPPY in the pics! I know she knows Mike is in a better place now! I love my Aunt Debra so much! SHE is such a "trooper"........ she is an RN and she knows medically the agony Mike went through, yet she still carries a smile!

I love my Aunt Debra so much! And until the day I die, I will always love Mike, and know he will be in ALL OUR HEARTS!!!!!

The way I see it, we shall celebrate Mike's life everyday, not ever mourn it! He was an awesome person, and he is with God now! And his spirit is STILL in our every day lives!

By the way, there is a Relay for Life meeting on March 25 at (I believe) the Community Christian School...... they need committee members..... I am very WILLING to help them out! I sure Hope I make it to the right place at the right time!

God keeps working daily in my life! Mike is my reason for doing Relay this year.
Anyway!!!!

I will TTYL,

Priscilla
