I am just learning of Michael's passing and I am so heartsick over it. Michael was in my first grade class at Town Center elementary. I will always remember his gentle spirit and infectious smile. I'm remembering your sweet boy and keeping your family close to my heart and in my prayers.

Our love and support to the Staples family. Michael was like family to us. We loved having him come over with Matt and just chill with the girls. It was always fun having them all together. We miss him so much, but now he is happy in his Mother's loving arms. Michael, you will always be in our hearts. With love The Carrington girls (plus Aunts and Grandma).
