September 13, 1952 to June 24, 2026

Hey! For those of you that don’t know, I was born on September 13, 1952 in Perryton, Texas. Where is Perryton? At the top of the Texas Panhandle – the real North Texas – only 8 miles from Oklahoma.

I met my girl, Susan, and knew she was the one. I got the nerve to ask her to marry me and she said “yes” after I begged her only once. We married the first time on November 14, 1980. Yep, we did it again because we figured out we couldn’t live without each other later in life. Together Susan and I had two sons: Jesse and Mikee. Susan brought me an extra son as part of the package by the name of Brett, and I brought her an extra package by the names of Clint and Lindsay. We lived in Shreveport most out life.

Time went on with numerous ups and downs. I recently came to an understanding that all the ups and downs were part of a great plan. You know, I always thought that the outcome of a football game was the most important, but I know now that God’s plan was set from the start and that outcome is the most important. That plan came to an end this side of Heaven on June 24 at about 4 am when I took my last breath, closed my eyes and opened them again looking at the face of Jesus.

I will miss my loving wife, Susan; my sons, Jesse, Mikee and Brett, my grandkids Logan, Alison and Shannon by my smart daughter in law Ida, Brett’s wife, and especially will miss my best buddy and grandson, Jackson and his loving mother Jennifer. I will miss my other grandson just as much, Kolby and my little sister, Kimbo.

I am seeing all the family that beat me here and am waiting on the day I get to see all of you again. Man, it feels SO good to breathe again. This is Great! Hurry up and get here!

I leave behind family as noted above, many nieces and nephews, cousins and some of the best friends a man could ever hope to have – oh and yes – my favorite in-laws.

I have got to thank all the doctors, nurses, therapists and techs who watched over or worked on me at Willis Knighton Pierremont and Pulmonary and Critical Care Specialitst. I know I was a tough patient

My family is holding a memorial service for me on July 3, 2026, 1:00 to 3:00pm at the Aulds Funeral Home, 7849 E. Kings Highway, Shreveport, Louisiana.

Oh yeah, in lieu of sending flowers, since I am already one, please make donations to your favorite charity.

I look forward to seeing y’all again. Mike
