Mike Overstreet

Mike Overstreet, 70, of Searcy passed away on Friday, May 17, 2024. Michael Lee Overstreet (Mike) was born in Searcy to Raymond and Ozella Overstreet on July 25, 1953. Mike was a loving father, grandfather, brother, and uncle; he will be missed by his many friends, business associates, and his community. Carrying on in his father Raymond’s footsteps, Mike was a home builder and home designer in Searcy for over 40 years, building and designing hundreds of fine homes in Searcy and East-central Arkansas. Mike was an avid cook, and he loved to experiment with food as a means to host his friends and family. He loved playing the guitar (or any instrument!) and listening to and learning about all types of music; it never failed that he knew details about every artist and every song he heard. Mike loved exploring small towns, backroads, and parks. He never met a river that couldn’t occupy him for hours on end. Mike loved to learn and lived a lifetime of curiosity and interest. He was a deep thinker and known for his quick wit and keen humor. He was always curious about what was just around the next bend, whether literal or proverbial. Mike had an almost inexhaustible number of stories on every topic imaginable which he loved to tell. Mike was preceded in death by his parents, Raymond and Ozella Overstreet of Searcy, his brother, Gary Overstreet, of Searcy, his nephew, Mason Overstreet, of Fort Worth, and a host of grandparents, dear friends, and cousins. He is survived by his daughter, Sarah Jordan, of Oklahoma City, his son-in-law, Will Jordan, of Oklahoma City, his grandchildren, Annaleigh and Camp Jordan of Oklahoma City, his sister, Lisa Barker (Jeff) of San Antonio, Texas, his brother Keith Overstreet (Kathy) of Fort Worth, Texas, his sister-in-law, Carol Overstreet, of Searcy, three nieces, Erin Davis of San Antonio, Texas and Amanda Meyers of Sumter, South Carolina, and Rachel Roberts of Fort Worth, Texas, and three nephews, Tyson Overstreet and Morgan Overstreet of Searcy, and Blain Overstreet of Bentonville, Arkansas. The family will announce burial arrangements at a later date. Arrangements by Powell Funeral Home of Searcy. To sign Mike’s online guest book, go to www.powellfuneralhome.net
