James Michael Ferguson, beloved son, brother, grandson, uncle, cousin, and friend to many, died in a motorcycle accident in Huntsville, Alabama on Saturday, September 13, 2025.

He was born in Memphis, TN on a bright sunny day on October 14, 1988. He is survived by his proud and loving parents, Mark and Becky Ferguson; sister, Jennifer Ferguson Mills; niece, Lillian Mills; nephew, Lincoln Mills; grandparents, James and Deloris Ferguson; and multiple aunts, uncles, and cousins.

James enjoyed the simple things in life. He loved the great outdoors and was most happy when he had a fishing pole in hand, on a kayak in the river, or on his motorcycle. He was gifted with the ability of multiple trades and loved working with his hands, especially on projects with his father.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, James and Ollie Howard; uncle, Buddy Paul Howard; cousins, Miles Ferguson and Brooklyn LeeAnne Howard; as well as close friend, Andrew Spraberry.

James was an electrician for the IBEW Union out of Alabama. He was a part of a great crew that he enjoyed working with and became friends with many of his co-workers.

Though he departed from his earthly home way too soon, his smile and unique laugh will echo through the lives he touched.

The family would like to request that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Together Ministries (Olive Branch, MS) or The Ranch (Dickson, TN).

A celebration of James' life will be held on Saturday, September 20, 2025 at Getwell Church Southaven, with visitation from 1:30pm until 3:00pm and Memorial service immediately following at 3:00pm.

Berryhill Funeral Home assisted the family.
