To the family of Mr. Kaplan. I never had the pleasure of actually meeting Mr Kaplan, but I did see him because my grandchildren attend Desert Sage, but are too young to have PE yet. I did bump into him one day as he was heading for class & it sadden me to know of his passing. Even though your son, husband, friend has gone to be with our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ, nothing can deaden the pain of loosing such a child, husband or friend, who by all means should still be with us. I hope that you will continue to seek our Lord in this time of grief & not let your pain & suffering cloud your hearts & may you all continue in your walk with God. The loss of one so young is the worst pain & suffering that anyone can ever deal with. We lost my son almost 3 years ago & the pain is still very real & always there. Nothing, but the love & peace of our Lord can help us heal & go on. As hard a road as it has been since the death of our son, our Lord has never left us. I will continue to pray for you & your family & may God bless you all & keep you in his arms until you are ready to walk on your own again. Until then may He carry you ever so lovingly in His arms & comfort you as only He can. God bless you. The Orosco's

Gone yes.....but not forgotten. He was the best P.E. teacher ever, we will all miss him.-Logan Mahan (Desert Sage Elementary)

Micah - you were a great friend and neighbor!  Taylor and I were blessed to know you for the time we did! The other day when I asked, why - why did this happen to Micah and Suzie, a friend replied, "God always needs the good ones".  This time, God, received the best! You will be missed Micah!

Micah was a great guy, he was a wonderful influnece on every life that he touched, he loved his wife with all of his being and would have done any and everything for her.  This is a great loss for us all. God bless Micah and his family, he will be missed greatly.

Even tho I hadn't seen Micah in years I always remembered that beautiful smile.Now he is an Angel in Heaven with his beloved Mom Jean. We will miss him but for some unknown reason the Lord needed him more than we did. My prayers go out to Joel and the rest of his family.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
