So sorry to hear of Mike's passing.  Mike was a great DJ.  I used him several time for the Whirlpool picnics and other events.  He was the DJ for my granddaughter's 16th birthday.  He was always a gentelman.  He will be greatly missed

Mike and I were "band mates" for awhile around 1999-2001, and we shared a bachelor pad for awhile. My memories of Mike ALWAYS make me smile. He was the most fun guy, loved music, loved dancing, loved life! I think of him often, and I wish his family all the peace in the world. He was a great man, and a great friend!

Mike was a great DJ.  I hired him several times for the Whirlpool picnic and other things.  He always did a great job.  He was always so good to help me out when I had a tight budget.  He played for my granddaughter's 16th birthday party.  He had a good heart and was always a gentleman.  He will be missed

Mike was the dj for my 16th birthday party nearly eleven years ago, and was a wonderful person to be around and did a great job at the party. He was a dear friend to my papaw James and I know will be missed ny him and many others. My thought and prayer are with all his family and friends, may God bless you all in this time of need.

Mike, our friend of many years. He was always there to help us share our special moments. He supported us fully with the first Kristen Lowery Springfest, was DJ for our daughter, Shanna's wedding, made sure the music was perfect when we renewed our wedding vows after being married 20 years. Mike you are in our hearts and memories. The angels must be rejoicing, they have a new DJ! Peace to you and to your family. Don and Susan Lowery

Mike was so good to help us with Special Olympic Events and fundraisers.  His compasion and his talents will be remembered by Area IV Special Olympicans, their coaches, and the Management team members.

On behalf of Arkansas and Area IV Special Olympics please accept our condolences and know he gave of himself to help others.

I haven't seen Mike in years, but I remember him as one of the funniest, positive and friendly people I have ever known. I don't think there was ever a dull moment when anyone was around Mike. The world has lost a bright light.

I became friends with Mike when we were both students at Arkansas Tech.  He was a great guy, he would do anything for his friends.  We had some really good times at Russellville.  Mike will be missed.

Michael loved.  He loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his music.  He loved animals and babies.  He loved to dance. He loved his beer and his chocolate.  He loved women and made each feel special.  He loved laughing and he loved good conversation.  Yes Michael loved and those who knew him loved him back.  Forever and a Day My Friend My Love.

His smile is contagious. Billy and Johnny have fond memories. Love from the Bill Hewett Family.

The video and photos are precious; thanks for sharing Mike's life with us. I barely knew him but I remember his kind smile and outgoing personality.  I know you will miss him.  My favorite quote is, "When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure."  Keep the good times in mind; I've got a hunch Mike would like that.  Think of all you gained with Mikey in your life, not what you've lost. He's still around, in your heart, in your actions - before long you'll be saying his words, or doing something he would do, and then you'll smile.  Sincere sympathies to your family and Mike's friends.

Rest in Peace Mikey, we love you and will miss you dearly!!!

I'm so sorry to learn of Mike's passing, he was a truly great guy.  I met Mike when he worked for Tyson years back.  We did some volunteer work going to the nursing homes to visit the residents.  Mike would dress in a big yellow chicken costume and dance for and with the residents--they loved him.  Mike was a lover of music and a great dancer.  He will be missed. Connie Martin Van Buren

He was a great person and always had a smile & hug!  My thoughts and prayers are with the family. We'll always remember 'Cousin Mike'.

I will always remember Mike as a Great dancer. He was one of the good guys and he was a good friend. I'm so sorry for your loss.
