Mike was a member of Cypress Baptist Church in West Monroe, LA, and was also a graduate of West Monroe High School in 1976, where he was very active in their class and was an active alumni participant.   Mike devoted his entire life to his family. He helped his son, Daniel launch his Carco business in 2017. He enjoyed camping, football games, and boy scouts. Mike was an avid reader and movie enthusiast, specifically, science fiction, comic books, and history. Mike was the kind of man who was always in good spirits and always had a joke to tell. He was also an animal lover, especially dogs.
