Dear Holly, Haley, Mikey B. Jr, and Hannah. I am so deeply sorry for this devastating loss your family has received. I sincerely apologize for not making any of the services as I've been without a vehicle since August and a job for 5 weeks. My close call with being homeless right now is minimal when compared to what you all are going through. Mike meant a lot to me. He was a true, dear friend that i got close with. He was there for me in some dark times and other than my own father, was the funniest human being i ever met in my entire life. Fantastic sense of humor with a big heart is a combination that never goes unnoticed. I know he was proud on the last day of January when you two hit the 30 year mark. He was such a good man, a wonderful friend, and I am a better person for having known him for his last 20 years 3 months and 18 days of his unforgettable journey of life. May God Bless you and the kids and help ya'll find peace and understanding through this difficult time. RIP Michael Thomas Bendure. You will forever be missed.

Love, your brother in Christ,

Timothy Aaron Thomas
