Micah Alan McAfoose

Micah Alan McAfoose met Jesus face to face on January 20, 2023.

Dear Micah,

Your family tells us that from the day you were born, you were someone who never needed an introduction. With your curly blonde hair, deep blue eyes, bright smile, and deep laugh, you had a way of lighting up every room you entered.

Your family remembers your love for baseball. From your very first game at five years old to your time as a catcher proudly wearing number 22, the baseball field was a place where your joy and passion were easy to see. They still smile at the memory of the promise that every home run meant a trip to Waffle House for an All-Star Breakfast.

They say you loved the simple but meaningful moments in life—dinnertime with family, disc golf, Skip-Bo, country music, a good campfire, your dog Patches, and time spent with friends. You had a quick wit and a goofy grin that made people laugh, and wherever you went, friendships seemed to follow.

Most of all, your family says your faith in Jesus was something you lived out boldly. Through church, mission trips, and time spent studying the Bible with friends, you showed others what it meant to live with faith and purpose.

Your favorite verse reflected the way you lived:

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the lord require from you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” - Micah 6:8

Though your time here was only 18 years, your family says your joy, faith, and the love you shared will continue to live on in the hearts of everyone who knew you.

We can’t wait for our reunion in heaven.

Until then…

Micah Alan McAfoose, you are loved and never forgotten.

Much love,

First Touch Family
