May 31, 2015....

On May 31, 2015 my cousin Michael was killed in a motorcycle accident at the age of 29. Leaving behind his beautiful 8 month old daughter, Amerie. Our family is completely heart broken. I grew up with Micheal and was very close to him, this has been the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. I know people say "only time will heal the pain" but I don't think any amount of time will heal our hearts. I wasn't going to post anything on my blog about his death, but over the last two months since he passed away I've learned that talking about him and sharing his beautiful life/memory has helped me with the grieving process. He was (and always will be) such a big part of our family, and although we will all miss him for the rest of our lives, his memory and legacy will live on...

(I'm having a tough time writing this, I will write more at a later time)

"Michael and Rylie. She loved when he would chase her and hold her upside down :)"

Until we meet again my beautiful boy....
