Michael had lived an amazing life even though
it was rather short. Michael was a great friend; he was the kind of friend
that stands by you when you need somebody to be there. He once saved my life. We
were both young kids then and we weren’t very close. I was hastily walking
across the street when Michael saw a speeding car. If it wasn’t for
Michael, I would have died right there. That’s how I became close to
Michael. Yes, that was 10 years ago and we’ve been inseparable ever since.
I remember once Michael told me he met a girl who stole his heart. Being his
best friend I must admit I was rather shocked and thought evil things about that
girl. Of course as you all know, I am referring to Michael. I was so envious
of Michael. It was not because I’m in love with Michael but it’s more of I
was simply not used to sharing Michael’s time with anyone else. It was always
me and Michael. When I met Michael, I didn’t know how I would react.
Michael turned out to be a really nice person and she ended up being a good
friend of mine too. I must say, I was happy for Michael and Michael.
What is it that we remember when we think of Michael? I think everyone who
knows him very well would agree with me on this. It was his sense of humor. He
was the kind of person that would make everyone laugh so hard that they’d end up
crying. Who could forget about his mama jokes? How about all his green jokes?
Goodness! Just thinking about those green jokes still makes me laugh. He was so
out there when he starts those jokes. That is what I will truly miss about
Michael. He could make me laugh when I am really sad. He always cheered me up
when he knew I just had a bad day. That’s the trademark of Michael. He always
wanted to make people happy.
Michael’s death was sudden. I remember when I heard the news I simply could
not believe it. Michael was too young but as it slowly occurred to me I have
realized that Michael indeed lived his life wonderfully. Michael was
well-loved and he had done so many things on earth and I’m sure he’ll do much
more in heaven. I will forever be grateful to have known Michael. I will
forever be grateful that Michael was there at the right place and at the
right time to save my life. I will forever be grateful for spending 10 years of
my life with a friend like him. All the memories I have shared with him will
forever be cherished and remembered. Michael will forever live in my heart…
In our hearts.
Michael is in heaven now and we are here on his funeral. This is not the time
for us to grieve his death but it’s our time to celebrate his life. Don’t ever
forget Michael. He never wanted to see people cry. He wanted to make everyone
happy. So at this moment when we are about to lay his body to rest, let’s all
think back and remember how Michael touched our lives. How he made us laugh
and how good Michael was as a person. This is not the moment for us to shed
our tears but we should all be thankful that we were given the chance to have
known a man named Michael.
Michael will forever be missed but I know in the right time, I will meet
Michael again. We will all meet Michael again and he’ll make us laugh in
tears again.
