Michael Benjamin Paige

Michael’s passion that he loved the most was driving his tractor trailer cross country taking in God’s beauty from the seas to the mountainsides. He described it as peace like no other traveling down the open road. Throughout his days, music on his record player filled his soul from classic records, turn tables and using his talent with his DJ equipment. He loved expressing himself through lyrics and melodies. Michael had a contagious laugh and humor that many will always cherish. You would frequently see Michael strap on his roller skates and gliding to his destination. You couldn't help but smile and admire his strides in his skates. Michael, you left your mark here on earth and forever in our hearts. May your journey home to our heavenly father bring you the ultimate happiness and eternal life!

Michael was predeceased by his father Norman Paige, mother Nancy Paige, grandparents Louis Paige, Rose Paige, late Benjamin Wingard, Grace Hendrix Wingard and his best friend Beethoven, his beloved dog. He is survived by Onyx, his loving dog companion.

Michael always had a sense of love for family ties and found his birth mother Alice Hall (Mark Hall). He was predeceased by his biological father Charles (Chuck) Toole. Surviving are his sisters Stephanie Wells, Ashley Morris, Bryanna Morris, along with nieces and nephews Isabella, Charles and Aiden. Michael’s life involved his friend family to include Tiffany Nelson, Zackery Hudson, Racquel, Little Zack, Austin and Candice, Sabrina, Mark and Mandy.

May this beautiful reading bring light in this time of sorrow. Michael’s new life begins with death.

Do you know?

Have you not heard?

The Lord is the everlasting God,

the creator of the ends of the earth.

He will not grow weary,

and his understanding no one can fathom.

He gives strength to the weary

and increases the power of the weak.

Even the youths grow tired and weary,

and young men stumble and fall;

but those who hope in the Lord

will renew their strength.

They will soar on the wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not grow faint.
