Michael married Raeann Etchison on April 23, 1977. Michael was a hard worker. He was a fleet manager at Hertz Rental Car and most recently stocked shelves for Walmart. His grandchildren believed if anything was broken grandpa could fix it. Michael was a large man in stature but it didn't compare to the size of his heart. Rebuilding cars was one of his many interests which helped him maintain his 1950 Chevy affectionately known as "Oscar". He enjoyed golf and made custom golf clubs. Bowling was another interest, the perfect 300 game eluded him at 297. He also enjoyed genealogy, reading, collecting tea pots and baseball hats. Michael is survived by his wife of almost 44 years; Raeann, children, Nathan (Nicole) Bunch, Antioch, TN, Alicia (Ian) Querry, Fairmount; four grandchildren, Emma Bunch, Lucas, Benjamin, and Zoe Querry.
