Hilary Dyer from Austin, TX
"Mike was somewhat of an enigma to me growing up because he was my oldest brother and I always thought we were so different. The two of us book-ended a decade and we saw quite a lot of things from completely different points of view. Not to mention, the perpetual teasing of his little sister. It wasn't until our father became ill and Mike and I spent time together at his bedside that I realized that actually we have a lot in common. I came to love and appreciate Mike's calm, easy-going nature, his kindness towards others, his sense of humor, and ability to have fun. I know my parents were quite proud of him. I'm quite proud of him. And I will miss him greatly for the rest of my life."
