Michael was born on January 16, 2005, in Lake Charles, Louisiana, to Thomas Halloran and Geraldine Chapman Halloran and passed away on Monday, August 14, 2023, in Joaquin, Texas.  

Michael graduated from Benton High School in 2023. He was proud to play football as one of the elite Benton Tigers. “Mikey” was known to be as country as they come. He loved to hunt, fish, and do anything outdoors. He was very comical and could always make you laugh. Even if you were upset with him, he would have you laughing before the day ended. He had a way with people and just his presence would light up a room. He never met a stranger and would help anyone in need regardless of time. He took a lot of pride in his truck and was always looking for something shiny or loud to add to it. He loved to hang out with his friends at “truck meets” and show off his ride. His siblings describe him as: confident, 100% himself, funny, outgoing, outspoken, goofball, silly, caring, wild, rebellious, hilarious, protective, caring, loving, chaotic but charming with a hint of sweetness, my ride or die, would do anything for family, especially for his nephews, he loved life, ambitious, and loud but most of all Mikey loved his family and his family loved him. He will be missed dearly by us all.
