Richard and Marie Lackey. He lived in Shawnee, OK most of his life. He attended Bethel high school and was the valedictorian as well as a basketball and baseball player. He married Dorothy Roberts in 1964, and though they later divorced daughters. Michael is survived by his wife Gayle, his two daughters Erin Crosby and Pamela Riley (as well as their husbands, Greg and Trey), grandchildren James, Nash, and Chloe Crosby, and Thomas and Aaron Riley, and his siblings, Teresa Tarpey and Tim Lackey and his wife, Janet. He is survived by many other nieces and nephews as well.

Mr. Lackey graduated from Central State University and has a Master’s in administration. He worked for Grove Schools, and later North Rock Creek School, preparing it to become a high school.

Michael enjoyed golf, playing bridge, and fishing. He will have much to learn in his heavenly home and maybe he will still have some educating to do.
