Michael’s Story: Loyalty, Love, and Generosity
Michael was a traditional man—
strong-willed, loyal, and generous to the core.
He had a quiet, knowing smile,
a playful sense of humor,
and a heart that gave freely.
Michael loved deeply.
Meeting Susan changed everything.
They brought each other joy and laughter,
And the house was always filled with the sound
Of happy birds, Rubin and Relic
then joined by their playful cat, Max
Michael and Susan found pleasure in simple moments—
by the ocean, with friends,
and in one another’s company.
Michael was proud, devoted, and kind.
He believed in showing up,
in loyalty,
and in people.
He lived a full and meaningful life,
his way,
And meeting Susan
was one of his greatest gifts.

Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
