Mike Charles February 27, 1956 - December 21, 2025

Michael Don Charles was born to Monroe and Marguerite Charles. Mike was raised with a love of the Lord and an incredible work ethic. He began working at just 12 years old alongside his father at the Oklahoma Stockyards.

Mike loved his family, friends, and the lake. The list of people he loved is so long it could fill a book. He never met a stranger, and his smile could light up a room. He especially enjoyed cooking for his family and friends.

Mike had three children—Tammy, Jennifer, and Michael Jason—whom he loved unconditionally. Through his wife, Kelley, God blessed him with three more children: Lezley, Ashley, and Easton. He was further blessed with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Seeing that Mike still had more love and wisdom to give, God entrusted him with raising and loving his granddaughters, Jaley and Kinzley. Mike was truly a blessed man.

He often prayed and held firm to the belief that he would see his loved ones again in eternity. He stood on Joshua 24:15: “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”This is not goodbye—it is we will see you again.

Mike is survived by his wife Kelley, his daughters Tammy, Jennifer and her husband Chris, Lezley, Ashley and her husband Matt, his sons, Michael Jason and his wife Adrienne, and Easton. Grandchildren, Jason, Cassandra, Brianna, Alexis, Nathan, Jaley, Nick, Kinzley, Jaden, Kashyn, Ryder, Easton Jr, Donovann, and Preston. Great Grandchildren, Lucas, Lewis, Violet, and Scottie Kae. Brother in laws, Stephen, Jason and his wife Maribel. His first wife Sandy.
