I had the honor of growing up as Michaels older sister Jacqueline. A 19 month age gap was definitely the only factor that set my brother and I apart. Growing up my brother and I were inseparable. Michael wanted to do and be everywhere Sissy was. He loved me so much that he couldnt stand to be without me and it was most definitely reciprocated. Michael was such a love. He had a gynormous heart. He was good boy and a love and passion for life like Ive never seen before in my entire life. I admired Michaels unrivaled knack to spark up random conversations and how he could make new friends with every and any one, wherever he went. I was astonished to see his ability to so quickly gain peoples acceptance, love, honor, loyalty and magnitude of respect by each and everyone he came in contact with. We will never forget Michaels biggest asset; not his appetite thats definitely a second runner up but his natural ability to make everyone around him laugh. His jokes, his impersonations,and his random comments made him a legend and people were drawn to him. Michael was mine and Im 100% positive everyone sitting here today can attest Michael was an abundance of sunshine wherever and whenever he appeared His presence was so positive, comforting and extremely uplifting. Anyone that had the pleasure of knowing my brother, you already how truly blessed you are its inevitable . With that being said, think about me. Ive been blessed to have my brother Michael in my life for 44 years. He was the love of my life, my baby yet always bigger brother, my world, my best friend, my biggest fan and my absolute everything. Although Michael no longer stands here with us physically today, his legendary smirk, contagious sense of humor and larger than life personality will live in each and everyone one of us. He has touched our souls and that will forever be embedded in a sacred, special, cherished place we keep in our hearts along with Michaels name on it. To my world, my brother and my best friend...I will love you until all eternity. I will miss you beyond words and my broken heart will continue beating while it bleeds for you. Until I see you again, please look after and protect our family and all the thousands of people that loved, adored and cherished you. I love you and hope youre resting easy. Love always, Sissy.
