Michael Alex Conn
January 8, 1987 – May 13, 2005

I am sad and grateful for our short time
together, enriched for having had you and
blessed to have your remarkable spirit with
us forever.

Especially today, Mother’s
Day, l need you beside
me. Not a day goes by
where we don’t think
of you and miss you
and wish we could go
back to our old lives.

The night of May 13,
2005 when you were
taken from us I lost a big
piece of my heart which is
broken in a million pieces. Our
family chain has forever been broken and
nothing seems the same but as God calls us
one by one, the chain will link again.

Forever in our hearts
Mom, Dad, Samantha & Jordan
 

Mike, I carry your heart with me.

 I carry it in my heart

I am never without it

Anywhere I go, you go.

HOW TO SAVE A LIFE 

"The Frey"

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
Pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong (where did I go wrong), I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up (I would have stayed up)
 with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
