Michael grew up in Tara with my six children and loved swimming in the Tara Pool with them. We all knew Michael and loved him, such an outstanding young man that loved everyone. When we attended anything at Our Lady of Mercy, Mike was always there, he loved his church too. My large family, especially the ones that were close to Michael in age, send their prayers and thoughts to you today. Michael loved the Lord and the Lord loved him. Mary Sue Meador

I am so sorrow for your loss. Michael was such a loving person. I remember him as usher at OLOM. He smiled the whole time while passing the collection. He loved serving God. I am sure he is now God's Angel in Heaven.
