Michael Thomas Vise, 50, of Springfield, MO, passed away November 18, 2017. He was born August 3, 1967, in Indianapolis, IN, to Victor and Sondra Vise.

Michael's quick witt and sense of humor will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved him. He was an avid Cardinals baseball fan and loved coaching little league. He was active in the local drama scene and held many lead parts in productions at the Little Theater. Michael had a giving heart and always participated in events that helped the local community.

He was preceded in death by his dad, Victor; and his grandparents.

Michael is survived by his mom, Sondra "Sandy" Vise; grandmother, Betty Brooks; sister, Michelle Pruett; nephew, Garrett Jackson; niece, McKenna Jackson; numerous aunts, uncles and cousins; and a host of other family and friends that will miss him dearly.

A celebration of Michael's life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the American Diabetes Association.
