Michael Kasper Obituary

Visit the Smith Family Funeral Homes - North Little Rock website to view the full obituary.

Michael Kasper, 63, lived in North Little AR. He was full of life and faith. He is survived by wife, Mary; mother, Laverne; sister, Michele Kasper; step-sons, John Tackett and Gabriel Tackett. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews. One among them, his nephew Matthew, always had a special place in Mike’s heart. He always found great joy in Matthew’s accomplishments. Mike and Gabe were inseparable and loved to talk about anything, but they shared a large passion for cars. Mike spent countless hours driving Gabe around the pasture in his truck, laughing right along with the toddler. Mike loved his mother dearly, and they spoke often of sports they enjoyed, keeping one another up to date. Mike enjoyed many sports, but loved Razorback and Cardinal games especially. He and Mary enjoyed 20 years of marriage and theirs was a devoted and selfless love. Because the two of them were disabled they were together nearly 24/7 and were wonderful companions for each other. They leaned upon one another often when comfort was needed and held each other up with great strength of heart. They didn’t “fight” as many husbands and wives do; any disagreements soon enough ended with smiles and affirmations of love. Michael faced many challenges in his life, but his days were full of hope and faith that everything would turn out just the way it was meant to.

Family will receive visitors on Saturday, January 21, 2023 at 2:00 PM at Smith North Little Rock Funeral Home, 1921 Main St, North Little Rock. Funeral will follow at 3:00 PM. Cremation will occur at a later date.
