Michael Anthony McBeath, 41, of Augusta, Georgia, passed away on September 27, 2025, in Augusta.
Michael was born on October 11, 1983, in Augusta to Rebecca Porter and Phillip McBeath. He worked as a carpenter for Master Carpenters Inc., where his dedication and craftsmanship were well known and respected.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Rebecca Porter; his beloved aunt, Lucy Fanning; and his grandparents, Barbara and Phillip McBeath.
Michael is survived by his children, Madelyn Wingo, Wyatt Mullis, and Michael McBeath Jr.; his sisters, Harley McBeath-McElroy and Katie Campbell; as well as extended family, including Marcie Mayne, Angela McBeath, and Austin Maxwell. All of them love him deeply and will carry his memory in their hearts forever.
With bittersweet emotions, we celebrate the extraordinary life of Michael, who brought immense joy and laughter into our world while mourning his departure far too soon. His vibrant spirit and infectious enthusiasm touched the hearts of everyone he met, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever be treasured. Though grief weighs heavily, we find solace in the moments we shared, the lessons he taught, and the love he so freely gave. Michael was a loving man — love came easily to him, and through it, he reflected the Lord. He will be deeply missed, but his spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
A celebration of Michael’s life will be held at a later date.
