Michael is surfing the lip at Jeffrey's Bay – March 2005 – we never thought that 10 months later, his earthly life would end.
Michael in his element! He loved his surfing, but loved people even more.
Michael and I on my birthday
Michael is watching a surfing-video
It was not exactly sumo wrestling but just a dad and son being playful
The words on Michael’s T-shirt reads: “Kiss your life goodbye” – we’re sure it did not have any particular meaning. But it’s just much more of an effort for young people to think of mortality – or maybe that’s just a generalisation?
Michael was in pain and could hardly bare being touched, but towards the end he asked us one by one to lie in his arm.
Michael and Isabelle, here.
Real Christian family love is special and doesn’t stop – ever.
Thank you for sharing with us as a family.
Here again is that link to some bullet-points on heaven, if you have another few minutes.
