On May 18, 2004, Michael Marvin Carey went to be with the Lord. Michael died in the line of duty, while serving his country in Iraq. He was fighting for the freedom that we so easily take for granted. Mike was a great Marine and friend to all that knew him. Carey split his teenage years between Hopewell, where his father lived, and Amelia County, where his mother lived. He earned his GED at age 16 and attended ECPI.
