David Mayo officiating. Mike went home Sunday, April 5, 2009, at LSU/E.A. Conway. He was born on June 9, 1958 in Phoenix, AZ, son of Robert and Earline Shoemaker. He was preceded in death by his father, Bob Shoemaker; brother, Greg Mcqueen; and a very special mother-in-law, Maxine "Mother George" George. Survivors include his mother, Earline Shoemaker; sister, Linda; brothers, Bobby and Paul; wife and best friend, Tanya Shoemaker; sons, Michael E. Shoemaker and wife Tinna, and Travis Coie; daughters, Michelle Buchan and husband Stacy, Sarah and Charllotte Shoemaker; special daughter, Natasha Shoemaker and husband- to-be Doug Terral, along with their impending bundle of joy; and Shelby Coie; numerous grandchildren; and very special friend and confidant, Bill Ashworth. Mike was an avid hunter, fisherman, and outdoorsman, but was best known as being a huge Nascar fan, so much so he made sure he and his wife never missed a race, even when he was in the ICU unit. He will be greatly missed by all whose lives he touched. We say farewell to the world's greatest redneck cowboy. Honorary pallbearers will be Travis Coie, Vernon Carroll, Paul (Doc) Watson, Mikey Carter, Scott Helferich, Lamar Hillis, and Pat Harrington. Visitation will be Friday from 5:00 PM until 8:00 PM at Mulhearn Funeral Home, Sterlington Road, Monroe. Tanya and Natasha send a special thanks to Dr. Paul Watson and his staff, Dr. Rutherford, and special friend and nurse, Dan, for their valiant efforts and quality of care. Your kindness is greatly appreciated. Mike cared for you all.
