Michael was born to Henry and Leithe Jardouin Booze on August 14, 1962 in Alexandria, Louisiana.
He was preceded in death by his father, Henry M. Booze; his mother, Leithe J. Booze; his brother, Henry Wayne Booze; his wife, LaRonda A. Booze; and his paternal and maternal grandparents.
Michael's Christian journey began at an early age. He was baptized at St. James Memorial Catholic Church. He served as an altar boy for most of his younger years at St. Juliana Catholic Church. He later joined Antioch Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Rev. R.B. Bennett, and then the late Rev Henry M. Booze, continuing under Rev. Stanley R. Mathis. Michael loved God, and he didn't mind sharing with others what God had done and continued to do in his life.
Michael is a graduate of Peabody High School class of 1980. He was employed by Diamond B. Construction as a truck driver for many years where he was known as "BOGator". He was a loving father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to so many. Family was very important, Michael always wanted to make sure he knew all his relatives and that they knew him. He didn't mind traveling to meet them. When he met strangers, they weren't strangers for very long. For those that truly knew Michael, the one thing you knew, he loved the Denver Broncos.
