Military Service Tribute, Honors, and Obituary:

Recognizing and Honoring a Fallen Hero, Who Served Within the Mississippi National Guard. “Fallen, Yet Not Forgotten”.

In recognition of our proud American tradition of honorable service which our military men and women have given to their country and our State, we honor a Fallen Hero.  Our nation, our state, and the National Guard Association of MS (NGAMS) regard the memorializing of its retired military deceased as an honorable and sacred obligation.

Another great Soldier and Fallen Hero has been released from duty, passed from our ranks on August 29, 2025, and has moved on to his heavenly home. Retired Master Sergeant Michael “Mickey” C. Page, age 82, who had served in 1st Squadron, 108th Armored Cavalry Squadron and HHC, 155th Separate Armored Brigade has departed and gone to a better place with our good Lord.  Mickey had worked fulltime as the 155 SAB S4 NCO.

It takes a special person to serve within the military for their country, giving up their family time, comfort, and safety for their country, ultimately for all Americans to enjoy their freedoms, safety, and way of life. We now applaud you for your service to our country.  A special message from General Douglas McArthur remains applicable today for our servicemen that have passed: “Old Soldiers never die; they just fade away”.

Rest in Peace Soldier.  We applaud your patriotism, sacrifices, and brave efforts in serving our country and your family for their support of your service. We thank you for your service. Without your efforts and your families’ support, our country would not stand so boldly, shine so bright, and live so free.

You now have earned a rest, so go fly with the Angels, go rest high on that mountain; your work on earth is done. Go to heaven a-shoutin’ Love for the Father and the Son.

Another great Soldier has gone home, “Fallen, Yet Not Forgotten, Soldier for Life”.

Obituary, Visitation, and Service Details:

Michael “Mickey” C. Page, a beloved husband, father, and friend, passed away peacefully on August 29, 2025, at the age of 82.

Born on January 27, 1943, in Houston, Mississippi, Mickey lived a life rich in love, laughter, and a profound connection to the natural world.

Mickey served four years in the Air Force and then later went into the Army National Guard. A dedicated member of his community, Michael served with honor in the Sheriff Department, embodying the values of integrity and service. Those who knew him will remember his steadfast commitment to others and his passion for the outdoors. Michael found joy on his tractor and in nature, where he loved to fish and hunt. His appreciation for the simplicity of life was complemented by a love for old westerns, football, and his cherished Ole Miss Rebels. Mickey’s faith was a guiding light in his life. He loved the Lord deeply and shared that love with those around him. He leaves behind a legacy of kindness, strong family values, and an unwavering support for his loved ones.

Mickey is survived by his devoted wife, Kaye Page; his son, Brad Page (Angela) and his sister, Shirley Dillard (Steve), his cherished granddaughters, Sara Beth Podewils (Zak) and Hannah Taylor (Peyton); and his adored grandsons, Justus Page and Mikey Page. He will also be remembered fondly by his nephew, Dustin Dillard.

Mickey was preceded in death by his parents Cortez Page and Agnes Paden Page, and a nephew, Britt Dillard.

To celebrate Mickey’s life and the impact he made on those around him, a visitation will be held at Glenfield Funeral Home on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, beginning at 11:00 AM, followed by a funeral service at 1:00 PM. Services will be officiated by Zak Podewils and Peyton Taylor.

As we gather to remember Mickey, let us reflect on the joyous moments shared with him, the lessons he taught us, and the love he spread throughout his life.

Glenfield Funeral Home is honored to be entrusted with the care and arrangements of Mr. Mickey Page.
