MY BEST FRIEND MIKA,
IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY BEST FRIEND. SHE
TAUGHT ME SO MUCH ABOUT LOVE
AND LOYALY. SHE SHOWED ME CONTINUES LOVE
FOR 16 YEARS.
MANY TIMES WHEN I HAD A LONG DAY AND
LIFE WAS GETTING ME DOWN.
I WOULD TURN THE CORNER HOME AND
GET OUT MY CAR AND
SEE HER WAITING FOR ME.
RIGHT THERE, ALL MY PROBLEMS
WOULD GO ALWAY,
AND THE BIGGEST SMILE WOULD COME
OVER MY FACE.
THAT IS THE LOVE I SPEAK OF.
THERE ARE MANY STORIES AND MEMORIES
I COULD SHARE,
BUT YOU HAD THE IDEA OF HER LOVE.

AFTER 16 YEARS OF GOOD HEALTH,
SHE GO SICKER AND BECAME WEAKER,
BUT HER LOVE FOR ME STILL REMAINED.
HER STRENGTH AND
WILL TO LIVE WAS AND INSPIRATION.

EVEN UP UNTIL THE END,
SHE HAD AN UNBELIEVABLE WILL TO LIVE.
I’LL NEVER FORGET YOUR LAST DAY.
I PUT YOU IN YOUR FAVORITE SPOT AND
PRAYED ALL DAY FOR YOU TO GO TO HEAVEN,
BECAUSE OF THE PAIN AND
THE ARTHRITIS IN YOUR LEGS.
WHEN I CAME HOME 8 HOURS LATER AND
THERE YOU WERE IN THE SAME SPOT,
BECAUSE OF THE SAME PAIN,
I HAD TO LET YOU GO.
AND I WILL REGRET,
THIS THE REST OF MY LIFE.
EVEN THOUGH I KNOW YOU ARE
IN A BETTER PLACE

NOW THAT SHE IS GONE,
I UNDERSTAND EVER MORE HOW MUCH
I LOVED AND NOW MISS HER.
SHE COMPLETED MY LIFE IN EVERY WAY.
SHE WAS MY REASON FOR GETTING UP AND
COMING HOME AT THE END OF THE DAY AND
SO MUCH MORE

MIKA, I MISS YOU SO MUCH
AND I HAVE NO IDEA
HOW TO GET OVER YOU.
I KNOW SOMEDAY I WILL BE ABLE
TO MOVE ON, BUT THE LOVE YOU GAVE ME AND
THE MANY MEMORIES
I HAVE WILL LIVE ON FOR EVER

ALL MY LOVE LOVE AND
THANKS FOR YOUR LOVE AND
SUPPORT IN MY LIVE..
I MISS YOU SO MUCH

ALL MY LOVE,

YOUR DADDY

MY BABY, MIKA
