I'm one of those people who has a lot of memories from my childhood and one of the bigger, larger than life people in those memories is Uncle Mike. He would come to our house and excitement walked through the front door. We loved him! He was the cool uncle. He always came in with a big hug and a present and the gifts were always fun. I remember him bringing us Clackers to play with, something Mom and Dad would have never gotten for us! (Yes, I know I'm showing my age by talking about Clackers!) One time he brought each of us a plant to put on the window sill and told us that if we talked to it the plant would grow faster. And although I thought he might be playing a trick on us, I still talked to it. He also took us to Disney before it was officially opened to the public. It wasn't just the presents, the man I remember loved everyone around him. Mom used to tell a story about how he would take which ever one of us was crying as a baby and walk around the block for hours trying to comfort us. He was a man with a good heart. I'm sorry to hear that he's passed and I know that those of you closest to him will miss him dearly, but I take comfort in knowing that he'll be in Heaven with so many that have gone before him and that he'll be there keeping watch on the family and friends that are still here. Love, Debbie Kledzik McEachron
