The funeral for Michael "Biloxi Mike" Surber will be held on Wednesday, November 18 at 2 P.M.
It will be at Bradford-O'Keefe Funeral Home at 675 Howard Ave., Biloxi, Miss. 39530.
Bradford-O'Keefe's phone number is: 228-374-5650.
It is my understanding that, because there was an autopsy, the body will be cremated.
Following the funeral there will be a gathering at Skeeter's Billiards in Gulfport, Miss.
 
Thank you Doc

I will see you there at the funeral...still having a hard time coming to terms with this; I can't imagine what Mike's family is going through and I know how devastated Glen and all of his friends at Skeeters must be...anyway, see you Wednesday.

Doc...I would like to send a card and perhaps others would also. Do you have an address to send it too?? Maybe Skeeters unless you have a better idea.

Michael L. Surber, 54, died at his home in Ocean Springs, MS on November 10th, 2009. Mike was born in Alexandria, VA on January 16, 1955 to Stephen B. Surber and Margaret G. Surber, both deceased. He grew up in Arlington, VA where he graduated from Wakefield High school in 1973. He worked at the Resorts Casino in Atlantic City, NJ and at the Dunes in Las Vegas, NV prior to coming to the Isle of Capri Casino when it first opened. He was employed by the Beau Rivage Casino, where he had worked as a dealer for the past 10 years before his death.

He was well known on the Gulf Coast for his skill in pocket billiards and played occasionally in national-level tournaments. He was runner-up in the North Carolina 2005 Open in one-pocket and was a semi-finalist in the 2007 Derby City Open, also in one pocket. He also had top ten finishes playing bank pool at several other Derby City Opens and in a number of other tournaments. In addition to billiards Mike was an avid golfer.

He is survived by a sister, Hebe Lee Wiseman of Charles Town, WV and a brother, Stephen B. Surber, II of Winchester, VA. He is also survived by a niece, Shelly Wiseman and nephews, Rob and Thomas Wiseman and Trey and Daniel Surber. He was preceded in death by an older brother, Larry Lee Straw in 1995.

Donations in lieu of flowers may be made to the Make-a-Wish Foundation at 4742 N. 24th St., Suite 400, Phoenix, AZ 85016-4862.

Just in case anyone is having a hard time getting into the Herald web site
here is the information on Mike's
 
I did not know Mike, but from what I have read here he will be greatly missed and I want to pass condolences from my family to his during this very difficult time. This same thing happened in Oklahoma City to one of the old timers at Truelove's and they caught the skumbags in eastern New Mexico. It also was going to happen to Tommy Tucker, but he was packing and shot one of them and held the gun on the other one until the cops got there.

I hope they catch the person(s) responsible for this hienous crime immediately and quick and appropriate (death sentence) justice is served.

God Bless Mike's Soul
