IN LOVING MEMORY OF

Michael "Mike" Allen Needham
April 1, 1943 – November 6, 2025
Michael "Mike" Allen Needham, 82, of Argyle, Texas, passed on peacefully at Presbyterian Hospital in Denton.
Born on April 1, 1943, in Fort Worth, Mike was the son of Billy Bert and Helen Virginia (Simpson) Needham. He grew up in North Texas and went on to earn his degree in Business Administration from the University of North Texas.
On August 6, 1961, Mike married the love of his life, Paulette Worrell, in Denton. Together they shared many wonderful years until her passing on June 20, 2007.
Mike retired from Southwest Medical, where he served as Printing Department Manager. Outside of work, he was known for his exceptional marksmanship and deep passion for firearms, firearm competition, hunting, fishing, and gunsmithing. Friends and family will remember him as a man of quiet skill, patience, and dedication to his craft.
A visitation will be held on Saturday, November 15, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Private family services will follow.
Mike is survived by his son, Monte Needham of Argyle; half-brother, Vince Needham of Fort Worth; half-sister, Kimberly Woodward of Fort Worth; grandchildren Kaitlyn Needham of Spring, Kasey Drake of Lubbock, and Jacy Needham of Denton; as well as many great-grandchildren who lovingly knew him as "Big Daddy."
He was preceded in death by his parents, his beloved wife Paulette, his brother, David Needham, and his eldest son, Phillip Needham.
Mike will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His warmth, steady presence, and love for family, often shared over an ice-cold Dr. Pepper, will remain forever in our hearts.
