Countless eagles doing unnatural things right when we needed it to prove to us Heaven and signs are real.

Many tears, but also many smiles remembering and hugs with family and friends. 

And several dreams with Mike making a cameo, sometimes as the star where he’s hugging us and we are talking about so happy to see you, others where he’s just a background character as if nothing ever changed.

Patti was beyond grateful for Max, her dog, her main companion and partner in crime, who got her through the two toughest years of her life.  They went for daily walks and hunted red squirrels together and sat on the porch for wine many summer nights. It was a big grief setback in December 2020 when he was hit by a semi truck during a snowstorm in front of their house and killed.  However, when one door closes God always had another one to open and she has a NEW VALENTINE who arrived the day before Valentine’s Day, a mini golden doodle named MR Pooh Bear. MR being Mike’s initials of course, but she calls him Bear. And she hasn’t laughed as hard or loved as much for two months.  He is pure joy. 

Patti and Kristi are headed back to Florida in March, and then she is working on a new barn project for a family wedding in June converting the bottom level into a bar for hosting the first reception along with the wedding. If you know Patti you know she is already in overdrive planning the details!!! ❤️ Today we are celebrating and honoring Mike with a ski, church, lunch, and a grave visit with the fam + BEAR!🐻

Love to everyone. Imagine Mike’s crinkly laugh and toast with a Mich Golden Light while wearing his button up shirt and dress jeans.  Today we celebrate his legacy!
