Michael's family spent their summers in Sherwood Forest, Maryland, making lasting memories of enjoying sports, boating, fishing, and parties with many friends and family.

In 1990, Michael married the love of his life, Annette. Michael and Annette shared a deep and committed love, and together raised the lights of their lives, Samantha and Blaine. Michael was a proud husband, and an even prouder father and grandfather. While successful in his career, his love for his family always came first.

In addition to practicing medicine in Mississippi, Tennessee, and North Carolina, Michael volunteered his time to help provide medical care and training throughout the world, especially in the countries of Haiti, Uganda, Belize, and Honduras.

Michael was known by many as a man who loved his family, the ocean, rock 'n roll music, basketball, and most important to him, Jesus. His love for God and others led him to serve many people throughout his life. He will be greatly missed by so many.

A Celebration of Life service was held on Monday, June 12, 2023, at Grace Meadows Church in Jonesborough, TN.
