Michael Shannon Harrell, Jr. passed away in the early morning hours on July 29, 2024, at the age of 34.  Mike was born on September 12, 1989, to Michael Harrell, Sr. and the late Beverly Harrell. 

Mike worked a host of different jobs, enjoying the variety of life and the thrill of learning new trades. He started his own business, BH & Son Transport in 2023 where it bought him a great amount of joy towing across North Carolina and Virginia. Mike always loved spending time with family where he could sit back, laugh and enjoy himself while talking about the many memories we had.
