Our hearts are breaking! When I got that dressed call from Merri the next day my heart dropped! and then I had to think quickly about how I was going to tell his father, Michael Williams and younger brother Aiden Williams, stepsister Angela and stepbrother Michael whose hearts are crushed forever. Aidens first thoughts were “ my brother was the nicest person and I’m not saying that just because he’s my brother and I had plans for him to be my best man one day, why mom? Why??😢
All I can say to him is that we’ll probably never know why and can only hold onto the great memories we shared like our trips to LBI, NYC, Disney and the special moments when Mikey called soda “pop” and you said, Mikey, it’s not called pop here in NY 🤣
And as for me I was the overprotective mom who is feeling helpless right because I can’t help him. Mikey told his Dad one day “Jojo is like a jolly rancher, hard on the outside by soft on the inside. His father, my husband will never be the same it’s been a struggle being far away but he knew Michigan was Stacey’s home and it would be selfish to fight to keep him here. Wednesday we’ll be having our service for Mikey and we will share with everyone his love of soccer, animals, root beer, burgers, new yor pizza, my Spanish rice and beans and so much more that we know he loved. But, most of all we’ll be sharing how much of a good soul he had, not a mean bone in his body. Mikey left us physically but his soul and memory will remain with us forever. God needed an Angel and that he was. Please keep us all in your prayers as we grieve this tremendous loss and our prayers are with Stacey his mom who I know is suffering beyond words and to all others who knew and loved him. Rest in peace “Mikey” we love you🙏🏼💔
