"Michael and I went to our Junior/Senior Prom together. His mom told my mom that Michael was so excited about going to Prom with me that he was ready more than 3 hours before he picked me up. We had a wonderful time that night. We drove to Des Moines for Prom. It was the first time the school allowed us to have dinner and the dance in Des Moines restaurant. "

"I have had the pleasure of working with Michael the past 5 years. I will miss his love for castles and Harry Potter. I loved sharing my food and foody stories with Michael. It won't be the same going back to the office without him. My thoughts have placed him in a heavenly castle of his own. Miss you buddy. "
