goodbye mike

I still can,t believe my friend mike has died. for people who don,t know mike had cancer about 15 years ago and becuase of all the chemo treatments and everything else, mike had next to no immune and when mike would get just a cold, it would be like someone else getting the flu, it would kick his butt. becuase of this mike would be in and out of the hospital alot for the rest of his life. he even got the grown up chicken pox and since they did,t catch it in time, mike lost sight in one of his eyes. mike never gave up, he was always a fighter, he never let things get him down. because of one of the many times he got sick, mike was told he have to be housebound for a long time so someone, I forget who gave mike a set of legos to help kill some time. whoever gave mike that set of legos, ended up giving mike a hobby that he would love for the rest of his life. I bet no one knows there are lego cons all around the world and not just mike but other grown ups love to play with legos. the stuff mike made was awesome, it was better then anything the lego company makes. Mike even got to know people that work for the lego company and they loved his stuff so much they asked him if he like to work for them. He would say no because the job would have meant he have to move far away and mike did,t want to do that. When it came to legos, mike had a real talent. Mike will always be one of the nicest,happest guys I will ever know. Mike did,t have a mean bone in his whole body. He was always happy, always had a smile on his face, had a great sense of humor, loved to laugh. I gave mike the nickname the duke, he had something done to his leg and he walked like john wayne so he got the name duke. Mike also had the nickname count blockula because of his love of horror movies and legos. Mike is still the only person I have seen put candy corn on his pizza and eat it. I got to see the big apple and merry old london with mike. I remember our first night in london, jim or mike made some joke and we all laughed and we did,t stop laughing for like 20 mins, because once one of us stopped laughing, someone else would start to laugh and it went on like that for 20 mins or a half hr. I will miss you mike. you will always be one of my best friends.
