7 photos of Michael–remembering him with love

A couple of photos of Michael and a thread to some bullet-points on heaven.
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.

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.
