Michael Heath McGaha

God called Michael Heath McGaha, loving and devoted husband home on April 14, 2024. Michael was born on March 14, 1975 in Pocahontas, Arkansas to Robert L. and Glenda Gale McGaha.
Michael was of the Baptist belief where he attended Central Baptist Biker Church. He loved going there and the people so much. He lived most of his life in Jonesboro. For almost 20 years he owned Custom Design Solutions where he loved to build and remodel anything. His love for wood working was one of his passions. He also owned McGaha Venture, which allowed him to help people that needed a place to live. Helping people was one of his passions, from the homeless to his friends and family. He loved riding motorcycles, going to Sturgis, the country, hunting and fishing in his pond. Mainly he loved to be with his friends and family. One thing about Michael, he lived to laugh and have a good time, because of his smile he will never be forgotten. He would tell you never to give up that God has this, and with God you can do anything. So, remember when life is tough it is a bump in the road and around the curve the sun will shine again. As long as God gives you another day, you have a chance to do things different.
He also loved going to the Children's Home in Bono and talking to the children about his experiences in life. He hoped that he could make a difference in their lives.
He leaves behind his loving wife of 15 years, Tracy Michelle McGaha of the home; his children, Dakota (Anna) Little of Blytheville; Tyler (Melinda) Ward of Maryville, Tennessee; brother, Rusty (Missy) McGaha; Joshua (Katie) McGaha all of Jonesboro; sisters, Tammie L. (David) Richardson of Jonesboro; Wendy (Mike) Healey of Cookeville Tennessee; father Robert L. McGaha III of Jonesboro; sister in law, Paige (Jeffery) Davis of Jonesboro; brother in law, Brandon (Tonya) DeVore of Salem, Arkansas; in-laws, Gary and Mary Lou DeVore of Viola; seven beautiful grandchildren, Clark, Erin, Boston, Royce, Ava, Jase and Landon; eleven nieces and nephews, Nate, Jessica, Taylor, Beau, Layne, Jett, Addison, Jace, Weston, Caleb, Tiffani, and Alex; great niece, Jules.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Glenda Gale McGaha; grandparents, Freeman and Jacquelene Green and Robert and Anna McGaha; his beautiful Niece, Brittney Richardson and dear friends, Eric Woodruff, Don Liggett and his uncle Jack Green.
Michael leaves behind several dear friends that he treasures and his beloved dog, Caster. To his friends he would say, Let me go, When I come to the end of the road, And the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom filled room, Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not for long, And not with your head bowed low, Remember the love that once we shared, Miss me, but let me go. For this is a journey we all must take, and each must go alone. It's all part of God's master plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, Go to the friends we know, Laugh at all the things we used to do. Miss me and remember me, but let me go. It's not goodbye but see you all later, Love Michael.
