Then it was Michael's turn to share some words with Daniel:

"My dearest Daniel... you came into my life when my world was torn apart, and your gentle loving heart has helped heal me.  Selflessly you love me and make my world one full of joy, music and laughter.  Always encouraging, never doubting me, you have created a space where I am free to soar and you ask for nothing in return except for my happiness... of this, I am in awe.  Today, not only do you join me as my life-groom, but you become a member of my family, and we are so honored to have such an incredibly intelligent, sensitive and loving human being as you counted as one of us now.

Daniel, you move heaven and earth on a daily basis for me and have shown me kindness, decency and respect above the measure of mere mortals.  If you believe that our loved ones who pass from this world are now angels looking over us from another realm, then I believe a legion of angels conspired with God to bring you into my life.  I am so blessed.

My heart is full beyond what my body can contain.  If there was only our love to live on, that would get us through. 

We will watch over each other as time goes by.  As long as my heart is beating and my soul soars, I will look after you, my sweet Boo Bear and within my powers, I will promise you that nothing's gonna harm you while I'm around.

I love you Daniel... now and forever."

After, Lydia Chen and Micaelee Ellswythe performed a lovely version of
"Not While I'm Around" from SWEENEY TODD.
