In Rememberance
of
Mike
I've  Dreamed  Of  You

   I've dreamed of you, always feeling you were there
  And all my life I have searched for you everywhere
I caught your smile in the morning sun,
I heard your whisper on the breeze at night. 
I prayed one day that your arms would hold me tight.  

And just when I thought love had passed me by, we met .
That first look in your eyes I can't forget 
You melted me with your tender touch
I felt all fear and sorrow slip away 
Now here we stand hand in hand this blessed day

I promise you as I give to you my heart 
That nothing in this world shall keep us apart 
Come happily ever after be the man I'll love until the very end 
I've dreamed of you my great love and my best friend  

For God must know how I love you so 
He's blessed us here today as man and wife 
Come dream with me as I've dreamed of you 
All my life come dream with me 
As I have dreamed of you all my life  
When Mike was diagnosed with Leukemia we turned to Jesus, and begged him to intercede before the Father for us.  Mike had such courage and such a strong faith. He wasn't going to let it get him down. He continued to do as much as he could for as long as he could.
After his second round of Chemotherapy, he was heartbroken and we had to deal with the fact that somewhere in the midst of all this pain and sorrow, God's hands would emerge. There is a purpose for everything.
Sometimes we just don't know the answer
and we will probably never find it in this life.
I had prayed all my life for a man that was filled with as much love for God as I had I also made a few requests that he be a musician. Both were answered. Mike's love for our faith was what attracted me to him in the very beginning. We would meet before Chior practice and pray
It all started so very sweet, we put ourselves in the arms of Jesus.
We were truly blessed.
I was able to be with Mike for every minute of his illness.
During the days when he felt pretty good and during those sacred nights where I begged God to take away his pain. If I were working, I could not have packed us up and travelled to our friend's cabin in North Georgia, where we spent so many wonderful days and nights communicating with our Lord and each other. I knew his every wish so that I could feel confident in carrying them out. The scene was so beautiful, the rushing river at the back deck, the simple log cabin decorated so lovingly by the hands of our friends. I'll miss going to the cabin. Those were treasured times.
They are in my heart forever.  Just as Mike will always be.
Mike cherished the Brick Pathway at Arlington Cemetery in Sandy Springs. Our babies have bricks with their names engraved. Mike made his peace with Annie and Michael there and many times as we visited to take flowers or just stop by.  I do believe he is there with them.
One day, we will all be there together.
