Mike was a person that you could never forget. Every time I think of him I can't help but have a smile on my face. A memory can't get better than that. Love you and see you later, friend.##imported-begin##Cyndi Newsom Shaver##imported-end##

Michael was the best brother-in-law a girl could ever hope for. He always treated me with the utmost respect from the very first time I ever met him when I began dating and eventually marrying! his brother, James. I will always remember his infectious smile and enormous heart of gold. He was a simple man who loved others unconditionally and never judged people. Michael loved reminiscing about our younger days and the fun times we experienced through the years. We loved our seventies music! He loved God and was constantly praying for others. He was genuinely a considerate and kind person who would do anything for anyone in need. Michael was a wonderful brother to my husband,James, as well as a great uncle to our children Zack and Ashley. "Every man dies, not every man really lives". Rest in peace, sweet Michael. We will see you again one day in Heaven, and will cherish our memories with you forever in our hearts.##imported-begin##Shaynee Elder##imported-end##

Words can not express how much Michael meant to me. Ill miss his stories about football, old music from the seventies and car racing. Our staff enjoyed his down to earth honesty and spirit too. He will be so truley missed by us all. I know he's now being held up by angels and in the Lords presence making them smile like he did to us.##imported-begin##Gary Lipkin##imported-end##
