Early this morning my beautiful husband Mike passed away from complications of Angiosarcoma. He is at peace now and looking out for Audrey and I from a better place, although I am sure he is just as heartbroken as we are. As always, thank you for all thoughts and prayers. I will post service information when the arrangements are made. Much love,
Julie
Oh my dear Julie and Audrey. We are so very sad and know you two must be feeling completely broken. Know we are thinking of you,
ReplyDeleteDeb, Ally, Rick and all of your Lake Norman family including Peninsula friends.
"Time for me to go now, I won't say goodbye;
ReplyDeleteLook for me in rainbows, way up in the sky.
In the morning sunrise when all the world is new,
Just look for me and love me, as you know I loved you.
Time for me to leave you, I won't say goodbye;
Look for me in rainbows, high up in the sky.
In the evening sunset, when all the world is through,
Just look for me and love me, and I'll be close to you.
It won't be forever, the day will come and then
My loving arms will hold you, when we meet again.
Time for us to part now, we won't say goodbye;
Look for me in rainbows, shining in the sky.
Every waking moment, and all your whole life through
Just look for me and love me, as you know I loved you.
Just wish me to be near you,
And I'll be there with you."
Julie......I am so sorry for this terrible ordeal you have had to endure (and of course for Mike). You will have many wonderful memories of Mike throughout your life, but the most beautiful one will be Audrey. I am proud to have known of Mike - someone so brave and honorable that he fought for our country and someone who left behind a beautiful family like yours. I had the good fortune of taking a walk with your mom yesterday and Audrey came with us. She is a special little girl. Thoughts and prayers are with you from so many people - even those you don't know, like me. Cindi, your mom's friend.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry Julie, we all are heartbroken, but he is in a better place watching over your family. Now he's your guardian angle. Love and prayers, Dave,
ReplyDeleteU have my prayers, sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteJulie, Please accept our most sorrow at this time of mourning. Words can not decsribe our heart felt grief for your loss. God bless you and your precious daughter Audrey.

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about Mike. He will always be looking over you and your beautiful daughter! You are a strong person Julie. Our thoughts and prayers are w you and your family.

My heart is breaking for you. And for Mike. He fought SO hard and you were right alongside him the whole way pushing just as hard. You're amazing Julie - he loved you and Audrey so much. I know that wherever he is now he's looking down and telling anybody who'll listen about how proud he is. And telling stories of the a beautiful, precious baby girl you made together that he left in such great hands. We're all going to miss him so much :'-(.
ReplyDeleteLindsey, Jeromey, and Toran
My heart goes out to Julie and Audrey. When I think of Mike I will always remember him being so full of life. You are in all of my thoughts and prayers.

ReplyDeleteYour battle is now over, no more tears flowing down your cheek,
no more pain, no more suffering, now you are no longer weak.
I still do not understand why this had to happen to you,
but I am proud to say you are my dad, the greatest man I ever knew.
Although you will not be here to walk me down the aisle,
when that day comes I know you will be by my side with a smile.
You were always there for me and never once made me cry,
until the day you closed your eyes and had to say goodbye.
Now you are my Angel, so spread your wings out wide,
please wrap them around me whenever you see me cry.
Our time together was memorable and God took you way too fast,
But the most precious thing to me was you being there for my first breath,
and me being there for your last.
Julie you and little Audrey are in our thoughts and prayers always. Mike was great man,Marine,and father and he was loved by everyone who had the pleasure to meet him. No better friend no greater Hero.Danny & LesLeeAnn Watts
Julie and Audrey, You have both been in our thoughts for so long now. Lauren has been keeping us up-to-date on Mike, and we are so heartbroken to hear of his passing. Please know that we are happy to help in any way we can. All our love, Bryan and Ashley Leath
ReplyDeleteJulie- I wish their was something I could say or do to help with the pain you are feeling. If their is ANYTHING that my wife or I can do to help..PLEASE..contact me..even if you need to get out of town and want to come to Florida..you've got a place to stay in my home- You and Audrey will ALWAYS be welcome in my home. Mike was one of the best friends I had while serving in the Marines. I'll never forget his energy, his goofiness, his HUGE SMILE or his general love for life. I'll ALWAYS be here for you and Audrey-
ReplyDeleteJulie,
ReplyDeletePaul and I were crushed when we heard the news. We had no idea Mike was ill until this evening. I dropped off a ups letter at you home this evening that was sent to my address accidentally and saw Cindy from next door outside. She told me what had happened and I was devastated. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your sweet baby girl. If there is anything you need we are 2 houses away.
