Annemarie’s Take

There are no words that can make a loss like this easier, especially when a family has so little time to prepare.

At just 48, Michael had so much more life ahead of him. My heart goes out to Bree, their son McGreggor, and everyone who loved him. I hope they are given the privacy and time they need to grieve such a heartbreaking loss.
