Left to cherish Mike's memory, are his brother and sister-in-law, Jerry and Susan Rucker Cromer, of Bath, South Carolina.

Mike was born in Aiken, South Carolina to the late Kenneth and Peggy Fain Cromer. He attended Tri-Development Center West and Mercy Gate Church.

Mike was a special young man who loved hugs, smiles, and everyone. He had a pure innocent heart. He loved tasty foods like pancakes and sausage, McD's hamburgers, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, Krispy Kreme donuts, and a Coca-Cola and with a Reese Cup or a Little Debbie Oatmeal Pie.

Mike loved Greenjackets Baseball and the Gamecocks.

Mike loved music, especially Elvis Presley. He would quickly tell you that "he WAS Elvis." In his last few days on earth in the hospital, he had his headphones on, eyes closed, a smile on his face, and a hand and foot tapping to the beat of an Elvis song.
