Mikey is survived by his father, Michael Shaver; his mother, Lynda Shaver; his sister, Lauren (Tanner) Cox; his nephews, Luke and Bo Cox; his niece, Daisy Cox; his aunts, Brenda (Tim) Sanders and Terri (Jerry) Downing, his grandmother, Dorothy Patton and a host of cousins, extended family members, and dear friends.

Mikey was loved unconditionally, and his memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
