Michael Hart Hornibrook, age 54, of Little Rock, passed away Sunday, March 26, 2017. He was born in Little Rock to James Reaves Hornibrook and Beverly Hart Hornibrook Kidd. After serving in the U.S. Navy for four years, Michael was owner and operator of A.S.A.P. Tree Service, Inc. for 23 years. He was an avid sportsman enjoying golf, fishing, and duck hunting — especially with his cousin, Peter. He was a jack-of-all-trades and a master of many. He gave selflessly to anyone who needed him, and did everything for the ones he loved. He touched many lives, leaving each a little better than he found them. He had brute strength when needed, and the most, gentle touch when necessary. The world is truly better for having known him. Michael is preceded in death by his father, his maternal grandparents, Katheryn B. and Edward M. Hart, and his paternal grandparents, Frances (Peggy) and James E. Hornibrook. Michael is survived by his mother; daughter, Haven Hornibrook, son, Houston Hornibrook; brother, James "Jimmy" Hornibrook; sister, Lisa Miller (David), sister, Reaves Hornibrook; uncle Peter H. Hornibrook (Judy); aunt Haven Waters (Bill); nieces and nephews, Jake Hornibrook, Anne Hornibrook, Rachel Miller, Claire Hornibrook, and Reaves Miller; grandchildren, Olivia and Mason Bogy. Also included is a host of extended family and friends. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Father John Marconi on Thursday, March 30 at 11 a.m. at Our Lady of the Holy Souls Catholic Church, 1003 N. Tyler St., Little Rock. A Rosary without visitation will be held Wednesday, April 29 at 6:45 p.m. at the church.
