“Dance your heart out!” – Mike Mento
Was that the direct quote or was it “Dance like crazy!”?  At this moment, all is too confusing and sad and busy for me to dig out the specific card and life lesson he gave to my two year old on his birthday this past December.  I nearly made myself crazy today trying to find the exact card and wording until I realized that the message was just the same and regardless of verbage, the message was crystal clear.  Live!  Love!  Dance!  Laugh!  Breathe!  Enjoy!   The last words to his nephew.. and niece for that matter.  Infinite wisdom and lifelong advice from a man who knew he was going to go all too soon.

Rest in peace, Mike.  Thank you for being the positive force you were to my husband and I and for taking the time to carry this importance over to our children.  We will always love you.
