Michael David Calhoun, age 58 of Coupland, Texas passed this life suddenly on November 15, 2013.

Mike was born in Champaign,
Illinois on October 13, 1955 to Glen & Jo Calhoun and was the oldest of four children .

Mike left us doing what he loved to do, riding his Harley motorcycle until a distracted driver took his life. He was an avid motorcycle enthusiast for forty plus years and was very skilled in the art of riding. Mike was a cherished friend and a mentor to many from all walks of life.

Mike was a Master electrician and proud member of I.B.E.W. Local 520 for over 18 years. He enjoyed the hard work and especially working with his union brothers at KST and Schmidt Electric.
Mike and Laurie enjoyed the simple joys of sitting on the porch of the house they built in the evenings, taking great vacations to many different islands and being with friends and family. Plans had been made to renew their tenth anniversary vows in Key West in February of 2014.

A Celebration of Life memorial will be held on Saturday, November 23, 2013 from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm at Old Times, located at 15218 FM 1660, Rices Crossing, Texas, at the intersection of FM 1660 and FM 973. Online memorials can be made at www.providencejonesfuneralhome.com, Elgin, Texas.

And please, please remember: LOOK TWICE….IT COULD SAVE A LIFE!
