MICHAEL COCHRAN
DECEMBER 5 , 1963 - OCTOBER 8 , 2016
As time marches on , we still have all the fond memories of the one who so quickly left us . We miss him dearly in our lives . Mike had many good friends and no one seemed to be a stranger to him . He enjoyed riding his Harley on long rides and invented the Long Hauler Gas Pedal .
Greatly missed by his family , Father , Brother and Friends .
In Loving Memory
of Celesta Hamilton
“ It ’ s hard to lose the ones we love , to see them pass away . The sweetest and the kindest gone , while others are left to stay . But if we had a garden with roses fair and bright , We ’ d often pick the loveliest and think it to be right . And so it is with Jesus , in His Earthly garden here ; He often picks the fairest flowers , the ones we love so dear . The flowers that are picked by Him , will never fade away . We know they will live forever and we ’ ll know them some sweet day .”
The Dale Hamilton family thanks everyone for their thanks , phone calls , thoughts , phone calls , food and visits . Thank You
