Mr. James Michael Haislip, age 58 of Murfreesboro, passed away February 6, 2016 at his residence.

In his free time he enjoyed working on small engines and cars. He loved the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman, as long as his health allowed. He was a devoted grandfather and passed along his love for outdoor sports to his grandchildren.

    I love and miss you Bubba more than i can even begin to say. But you aren’t suffering anymore and that’s the main thing. Because i know how you hurt and suffered. I’m going to miss our long talks and the way you would always pick on me. I’ve not just lost a brother, I’ve lost a best friend. Rip Bubba. God has a good man and he knew how tired you were and decided it was time to call you home. But you are and will always be loved and missed by so many. You touched so many lives and were so selfless, not just those that knew you but to anyone that came to you for anything. I love you.

    I love and will miss you always, our long talks, our picking on one another. But most of all your easy going personality, and your ability to find or see the best in people no matter what. You would have given the shirt off of your back for anyone and not just to the people you knew. You were selfless, kind, and so very caring. You touched so many lives. But i know deep down in my heart and also from our talks you were so very tired of always hurting and suffering every single day. But no matter what, we weren’t ready for you to leave us. And that’s probably very selfish on my part. But you weren’t just my big brother you were my best friend and that is the hardest thing for me. I don’t have anyone else that understands what I’m going thru and you were always ther,, to help me work through those hard times. I will always love and miss you and our special talks. Not only have I lost my brother I’ve lost my best friend. I love you Bubba ,and also tell mama and everyone of our family members that are up there with you Vic says hi and i miss them, specially mama and Mimmie. You aren’t hurting anymore Bubba you’re perfect. I love you dearly. Your baby sister. Vickie. <3
