Michael Eugene Heer

Michael Eugene Heer, 55, of Mabelvale, Arkansas went to be with the Lord on June 28, 2022.  He was born March 6, 1967, in Little Rock, Arkansas to the late Audrey and Ida Pat (Boyette) Heer.

Michael loved being in the outdoors hunting, fishing, camping, or floating the Buffalo.  He reminded his family of MacGyver, as he could make something out of nothing and could fix anything that was broken and make it work again.  He was a fabulous storyteller.  Family was special to Michael, and he cherished times spent together.

Preceding Michael in death are his parents; and siblings:  Bobby Heer, Glenn Heer, Tony Heer, and Kelly Heer.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory two children:  Ryan Heer of Mabelvale, Arkansas and Rachael Hasley and her husband Adam of Malvern, Arkansas; sister, Kathy Keever and husband Clint of Bryant, Arkansas; brother, Charlie Heer and wife Stella of Mississippi; mother of his children, Karen Heer of Mabelvale, Arkansas; best friends:  Robert Keenzel, Nick McDaniel, Keith Perkins, Shane Stoops, Greg Stubblefield, and Susan Brenkus; and a host of family and friends who love Michael and will miss him dearly.
