Michael Doherty, age 42, was born on April 25, 1977 in Camden, AR and passed away on June 10, 2019 in Lemoore, CA.

Michael went by his nickname Mickey, that was given to him by his dad when he was a little boy. Mickey grew up in Bearden, AR where he attended Elementary and High School. He also attended Camden Fairview High School for a short period of time. Anyone who knew Mickey knew about his love for the Arkansas Razorbacks (even when they were losing) and his passion for music. They also knew how much he loved his family and friends. Mickey never met a stranger. He was a true entertainer and always the life of any event. He was a confidant to so many he met across the globe and reached out often just to check in.

Mickey was a resident of Pensacola, FL at the time of his passing, where he was serving in the US Navy as an aviation electronics technician. Mickey joined the Navy in October 2005. After training in Great Lakes, IL he completed tours in San Diego, CA, Lemoore, CA, and Fallon, NV before landing in Pensacola, FL which he considered to be his home. He was proud of his service and reached the rank of First Class Petty Officer.
