Mikey Murr - Taken 2 Soon

Mike was Taken 2 Soon by a senseless accident that has changed all of our lives forever.
We are all reeling from the pain, shock, anger and sadness.

Hundreds of friends and family gathered together to pay respect to him and prop each other up for the days ahead.

At the candlelit vigil and funeral service people stood to offer words of loving remembrance and stories about living with Mikey.

He now lies within the protective aura of his godfather whose resting place is right behind Mike's and depicts Fred as larger than life even after death.

While Oliver Kasprizik likely did not intend to take him from us that day, the combination of his negligence and our traffic laws have allowed him to return to Germany with a mere traffic ticket.

This has increased the confusion that we all feel in trying to grapple with the trauma that has touched all of our lives.

The increase in the use of motorcycles and scooters in these days of high gas prices has seemingly increased the number of motorcycle related accidents and deaths to an unnerving level.

Our hearts are broken and a hole has been blown through the fabric of our lives and reality.

Mikey was clearly Taken 2 Soon from us all.
