Michael Lofton

We will always carry you in our hearts Mike. I know you are wrapped in Gods loving arms, at peace. Missed by all, and surely loved. Keep watch over us with our Heavenly Father by your side. I can't wait until I see you again. Love always and forever, Mom.

I just want to tell you that you are so missed. Still Loving You & Missing You From Afar. Until We are Together In Heaven. Love You Always Michael

I remember how I got the call,
The day that really changed it all.
The pain was deep, and how it came,
Our lives would never be the same.
The cops they said I could not go,
And hold your body down below.
I cried when I could see you lay,
And only wanted was to say
That I am here, and love you so,
But you were gone, you had to go.
The boy was weak, he was no man
Just took your life, away he ran.
I try to honor you each day,
We miss you so, he'll have to pay.
But know this now, when the time it comes,
Well meet again, with love, my son.

I love you David Michael Lofton.
All of my love until that time,
Love, Mom.
Michael your brothers and I love you forever, and our hearts ache missing you. Rest in peace, Son.

Daddy, I pray every day, and I know you are always watching over me. I will always do my best because I know you are always proud of me. I love you, Daddy and I will see you again in Heaven. All my love, Tanner

your soul is free. until we meet again with love

May God hold you in the palm of His hand until we meet again. Miss you and love you always, Love, Nana

I miss and love you mike. Every day it gets harder to swallow the fact that well never get to see or hear your amazing self ever again. Sometimes I think about the future and I don't want it to come bc you won't be here with us to celebrate birthdays or holidays. You had the biggest heart mike, and had such an infectious spirit. With out a doubt I know you will never be forgotten and your memory lives within so many people who love you. I know your with god and he has you wrapped in all his glory. I see you in the sunshine and even though it hurts to know youre gone I see you in tanner and your brothers. Love you so much. Miss you

You are an amazing father, brother, cousin, friend, anyone could ever ask for. You taught so many lessons to so many people. We will always remember your smile, so big and beautiful.

Mike was a great kid. I remember him as a baby and then 20 years later as a young adult. He was always full of life and love for his friends. I know that he is in a better place by far than this one. Mike, you will be missed buddy.

Mike will forever light up our lives in the many ways he contributed to us in his life...

It is still hard to imagine that lofton is no longer with us. He was such a great guy always put a smile on your face. He was like family I can't begin to imagine what his family is going through. He will truly be missed may he rest in peace .

I am so sorry for your loss. May God bless you and your family. I'm here if you ever wanna talk Meredith. Love you.

I'm very saddened by your loss. I am glad we got back in contact after so many years and I have ur artwork to remind me of u. Thoughts and prayers with ur family. Say hi to my dad up there.

Mike Lofton was very special to me, he never knew how much. I couldn't go to funeral but he was on my mind the entire day and still is. He had a great heart. I did everything I could for him. I cant get him out of my mind still to this day. I had much love for him. I lived with him for awhile and shared deep, dark secrets with him. even after we split up we still found time for each other. He didn't deserve this! I say a prayer for Mike and his family every night. Meredith, u were very good to me and im so sorry u had to go thru this. Please call me if u just want to talk or cry or even scream, im here for u just like u were there for me. I know he is in a better place and with Nikki. I love and miss u all, especially Tanner. I love u!!

I would like to say sorry for your loss and may he rest in peace! I love Mike like a big brother and he will be dearly missed!

Meredith and family,
I am praying for you daily and will continue to do so. Your son meant alot to my son and daughter. You will see him again. Clara

We did not know Michael. But, we do know his grandmother, Carol Patton. From the 40 entries we have read so far, he was loved by many and was kind. As a former Hospice nurse, the bottom line was to be loved and to have done something important in your life. Looks like he did it. But, I am so sorry that this happened. We send our love to all of you.

I haven't seen you in years but I will always remember the good times we had growing up. You always made things seem good even when they were bad. You are deeply missed by so many. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

On reading all the expressions of love and sympathy from the other entries I can see what a wonderful person you were. It shows me that you had all the wonderful qualities in a person that I see in the rest of your family. I wish I had gotten to know you better. Your little son Tanner is a precious joy and I love and admire the rest of your family. God bless you.

You were a good man Mike. I will miss you dearly. Every time I saw you, you made it a point to make sure everything in my life was OK and if they weren't we talk it out. You were like an older brother I never had. It saddens me to see a man with a good heart and soul leave us so soon. I will always keep you in my memories. Take care mike
I love ya man. Say hello to my cousin Nikki for me.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Such a Great Guy u will be missed by many much love to ya and prayers for your family

Prayers to your family and so sorry for your loss... Mike you were a funny guy I will miss you on face book . R.I.P.

Mike,
I recently had the pleasure of meeting you. Your passing is a tragic event that is so very sad and senseless beyond belief. My heart just breaks for your family and friends that have lost a good person at such a young age. Heaven has again a new angel with a good soul. My thoughts & prayers go out to all that knew and loved Mike.

Mike gave warm, strong hugs, loved his family and friends, and was driven by his passions. I was often awed by his intensity. I trust his brilliant spirit will be remembered by all who knew him and Tanner will forever be reminded that his daddy loved him. My deepest wishes for peace go out to his large, loving family. Who will forget that grin??
