The service will be live streamed at the following link starting at 10:45 a.m. on Friday: https://youtu.be/0vykW0TPrMY Sometimes there is a special person that fulfills and facilitates many important decisions, dreams, and goals in your life. Mike was that person to his family and friends both near and far. A kind and loving man who focused on the positive and always brought out the best in those around him. Michael W. Reeves, wonderful husband, father, grandfather and friend, of Prosper, Texas passed away with his family by his side on January 24, 2021 at the age of 74. He was born on January 19, 1947 to LeRoy W. Reeves and Charlene (Baird) Reeves in Canyon, Texas. Mike grew up in Childress, Texas where he graduated from Childress High School in 1965. He earned a football scholarship to the University of Texas in Austin, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Business Administration. He was a loyal Longhorn and a proud member of the SAE Fraternity. Mike and his wife, Janie, were married August 31, 1968 in Childress, Texas before their senior year of college. Mike started his long career with New York Life Insurance Company (NYLIC) in 1971 as an agent in Austin, Texas. In 1975, he was promoted to managing partner and moved his family to Dallas, Texas, where he spent the next 10 years building the largest insurance agency in Dallas – one of the largest in the entire state of Texas. After a number of New York Life managers passed through what became known as the “Reeves system,” Mike was named Senior Vice President of the West Central Zone, which he grew to more than 30 General Offices across 15 states. Mike’s NYLIC career spanned almost 40 years until his retirement at the end of 2005. He loved New York Life and his NYLIC family. Mike lived an incredible lifetime of faith, family, and friends, and was a member of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Prosper, Texas. He served on the boards of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, ManeGait Therapeutic Horsemanship, and the Prosper ISD School Board. Mike enjoyed hunting, fishing, and loved playing golf with his friends. Mike is survived by his wife of 52 years, Janie Glover Reeves of Prosper, Texas; daughter, Courtney Day Buckaloo of McKinney, Texas; son, Cameron Michael Reeves and wife, Lauren of Prosper, Texas; grandchildren, Taylor Buckaloo, Landrie Buckaloo and Alston Buckaloo; and a host of other loving family and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, LeRoy and Charlene Reeves.

I have so many fond memories of the good times we spent together over the course of our NYLIC careers. He was a truly special man. I'll always remember celebrating your anniversary with you in Toronto so many years ago. Please be comforted with the knowledge that he was the type of man many of us aspired to be. Kindest personal regards, Allan & Mary Howard ALLAN, MARCH 5, 2021 It may seem like a cliche to say someone changed your life, but I can truly say Mike changed mine, and Janie you were a big part of that. We have been blessed to know the Reeves family for almost 40 years. Charlie and Barbara Classe CHARLIE CLASSE, MARCH 2, 2021 Time is too short for those that wait, too swift for those that fear, too long for those that grieve, too short for those that rejoice, but for those that love, time is eternity. I have never met a more natural born leader. Some people just have that it factor that when they speak the rest follow. Mike did not just have the it factor, he also never turned it off. I am truly blessed to call Mike a friend for so many years. And I am so sorry for y’all’s loss. H J CARTER, FEBRUARY 16, 2021 Janie, I was so saddened to learn of Mike’s passing.
