Michael James  Tardie “JT”, age 34
Born into life: 31 Aug 1986
Passed onto the Lord: 12 December 2020 
JT is survived by his wife, Annemarie and his two children, Alyssa Anne and Isaiah James.

He is also survived by his mother Cindy; his three sisters, Prisca, Morgan, and Hannah, and all his nieces and nephews 

JT enlisted in the United States Army at age 16 1/2 and left for Basic at 17, where he completed One Station Unit Training (OSUT) at Fort Benning, GA and earned the title of United States Infantrymen. JT was a two-war veteran and participated in both the Iraqi War and Afghanistan War. 

He loved the great outdoors and spent his free time hunting, fishing, riding his motorcycle, and spending time with family and friends. 

JT was a very caring person and always loved those who were close to him, his shoes will leave a large void with the absence of his larger than life personality. 

Rogers & Breece Funeral Home will host JT’s services which will be attended by invite only. 

Freedom Biker Church will host a public memorial on January 9th at 1pm with military honors.

A private Unit Memorial Ceremony will be held on Fort Bragg at a later date.
