Michael Shayne Crays

Michael Shayne Crays, 5, of Petrolia, KS passed away on July 16, 2018 at Miami Medical Center in Paola, KS. He was born to Taron and Janeese (Pruitt) Crays in Topeka, KS on December 20, 2012. Michael was an energetic and happy little boy who was looking forward to starting kindergarten this coming fall. He loved everyone, but especially loved following his brother “bubba” around while swimming, fishing, or riding his go-cart or gator. Michael loved to watch tv with his dad and was known to dance to any beat he heard, whether it was an actual song or just a commercial. He preferred running barefoot, often being reminded by his dad to put shoes on, but didn’t mind wearing them while playing t-ball for his Humboldt team, Opie’s. Michael was an animal lover and had many pets including kittens, turtles, and his beloved rat terriers, Bella and Delia. In addition to his animal friends, Michael loved spending time with his best friend since birth, Tyler, from Scranton, KS, and they made many lasting memories together. More than anything else, Michael loved everybody he met, and will be forever missed by those who had the privilege of meeting him.
