For Michelle

I thought about this page for a long while before deciding to publish it. I never met Michelle, but I learned about her, from one of her friends, at the bar in Applebee's. This page is for Michelle.

Michelle was Amy's friend. One night, while she was on the phone with a friend, Michelle's doorbell rang. Her friend at the other end of the phone line heard Michelle go to the door, heard her say, "What are you doing here?" After that, silence.

When Michelle failed to return to the phone, her friend phoned Amy and told her what happened. Amy went to Michelle's house and found the lights on, the door open, the phone off the hook. Michelle was not there. This happened a few years ago. To this day, Michelle has not been seen again.

I just wanted to say . . . though they don't know what happened to you, or whether you're alive or dead, your friends have not forgotten you, Michelle.
