Because There Was Mike ... ~*Marge Tindal*~ I knew the love of a younger brother that filled my heart with memories at will he is now gone beyond the wall that separates us still~ Down the corridor of death he strolled far too soon in his manly life left a family that loved him so barely carrying on through the strife~ It should not have been this way Mike should still be here today~ ~*~ ~After twenty six years of missing him, it's still so very hard~ In loving memory of my little brother David Michael Cowart June 20, 1946 - July 3, 1980 ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

As I called my brother this morning, I thought of yours... and though I know the missing will never end... I send my love and hugs and hopes your heart finds peace. |

Marge, I know how you feel. My brother was born in 1956, and he died in 1980. I sure do miss him. |

Thank you all for thinking of me~ The night that we lost Mike, due to the negligence of a drunken driver who left his vehicle stranded on the highway while he slept it off in a motel across the road, stands so sharply in my memory~ No one should perish like our Mike did ... and it just plain downright hurts~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Dear Marge: I never had a brother, although I always wanted one, but I can't even imagine what it would be like to have had one and lost him! Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Yes MT, things like this should never happen to any one. And, it hurts so greatly when it is one of our own flesh and blood... And, to think that the driver of the vehicle might be alive after living a full life...Things never feel fair when they happen this way. |

I so appreciate you all~ I held the day about me in tender recall~ Lovingly wrapping Mike's memories around me and knowing that all those special things about him are the reasons I miss him so~ How we could have enjoyed so many grown-up moments together ... *sigh* I hear his laughter on the breeze, see his open smile as he tries to tell me something that he knows I already know ... we were blessed to have known each other ... God, why couldn't it have been for longer ? *SisterlyHuglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
