Michael Share

A celebration of life service is scheduled for Thursday, December 3rd, 2026 @ 11 AM at Carolina Memorial Funeral Home and Gardens, 7113 Rivers Ave, North Charleston, SC 29406.

Born in Washington, DC, Mike spent much of his childhood living in various states before graduating High School in Placentia, California.

He proudly served in the United States Army from 1967 to 1969 including service in Vietnam. During his service Mike was awarded the Silver Star. The Silver Star is the third-highest military combat decoration that can be awarded to a member of the United States Armed Forces. “It is conferred only upon members of the United States Armed Forces who distinguish themselves through conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty.” Mike was honorably discharged from the Army as a Staff Sergeant.

Following his military service, Mike graduated from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Teaneck, New Jersey. He went on to spend most of his professional career with Burger King Corporation in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

In 2009, Mike retired to North Charleston, South Carolina, where he enjoyed many years of retirement. He particularly cherished weekly meetings with fellow veterans who became his local family and were able to bond and benefit from sharing their service experiences.

Mike is survived by his two sisters, Susan Share Cummins and her husband John, of Summerville, South Carolina and Candace Share McLaren and her husband Jeff of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He also leaves behind five loving nieces and nephews and eight grandnieces and grandnephews.

Mike was an important part of his family. He never missed a family event. He loved being around his nieces and nephews and they loved being around him. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him.
