It was a honor to further get to know Mike and Alma,through my interactions as a massage therapists. I would look forward to coming over to work with Mike and Alma to help reduce Mikes pain. Through these interactions, Alma's love for Mike showed in the care she gave to him, standing by his side through it all. Mikes passing is very sad but as Mike said, his friends and family will see him again when we go to be with God. Love the whole White family, there will be continued prayers for you all. Thank you for the opportunity to work with and learn from both of you Mike, and Alma. Lots of love. -Jenna

When I first heard that Mike was diagnosed, I felt sorry for him and Alma and the new family that had only recently brought together. I am sure that it has been a struggle for all to bear these past few years as Mike’s health deteriorated. Mike is now at peace. The family has grown and will always remember the sacrifices made by all to carry them through these past few years. Alma will certainly be blessed for the care she gave to Mike, while also attending to the needs of the family. Alma’s love for Mike was easy for all to see. I hope she can find comfort in his memory and find happiness again.

Mike, my second father, words can't explain how truly blessed I was that you were in my life and that I was involved in yours. I have many memories of you that I will keep locked away forever and always. That being said, I feel extremely guilty that all those times I come up to Napa and didn't see you before the end. Maybe that's why I cried so much at the service, the guilt I was feeling, not being able to give you a proper goodbye. Now that you're at peace, I hope you can forgive me for that and know that I will love you always.
