Michael Fields, Tallahassee, FL—Michael Fields, lovingly known as "Pops," passed away on July 18, 2024, leaving his family and friends in deep sorrow. He was a cherished father, friend, and companion, known for his resilience and love for his family.
Michael’s passing has deeply affected his son, Jeremy Fields, who had been caring for him after moving him from Norman, OK to Tallahassee, FL in August 2022. Jeremy, who had a stable job and a welcoming home, faced a series of hardships that culminated in his father’s passing. The economic downturn led to Jeremy losing his job just before Christmas 2023, and the aftermath of a severe storm in May 2024 further compounded their difficulties by destroying their only vehicle.
Despite these challenges, Jeremy continued to support his father and their loyal dog, Big Boi. Tragically, Michael fell ill and was admitted to the hospital on July 17, 2024. He passed away the following evening, leaving Jeremy heartbroken.
In memory of his father and to manage their current situation, Jeremy has organized a fundraiser to help with moving forward. The funds are intended to cover medical expenses for Big Boi, settle affairs in Florida, and facilitate their move to a more stable environment. The goal is set at $2,500, and so far, $800 has been raised through the generous contributions of friends and community members.
The love and support from donors like Misty McElroy, Kathleen Fargason, Joe Shaeffer, Heather Peckham, and an anonymous donor have provided Jeremy with much-needed hope during this difficult time. Their kindness reflects the impact Michael had on those around him and the strong community bonds he fostered.
We are deeply saddened to learn of Michael Fields’ passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jeremy and Big Boi as they navigate this challenging period.
