Michael Lewis Rose's Obituary

Mike was a loving son and brother who was a very hard worker, and took pride in whatever he set his mind to. He had a fondness for 70’s era movies, music, and TV shows and enjoyed collecting toy tractors. Mike was a protective brother to his older sister and could be talked into playing dress-up with her in their younger years, but was onery and enjoyed chasing her with snakes and spiders, too. He was a “mama’s boy” who believed himself to be quite southern and his life reflected that. Mike had lots of friends, who he was loyal to, and will be missed by many.
