BLYTHEWOOD – Michael Kevin “Mickey” Ansley, 62, of Blythewood went to be with his Lord on Wednesday September 11, 2019. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family, after a sudden and brief battle with cancer. In life, he was a man of strong faith and a devoted husband, father, brother and friend. Mickey cared deeply for family and friends, was eager to help others in need, was a prayer partner and confidante to many, and had a great sense of humor and a sharp wit.
Mickey was born in Aiken, the son of Hugh Cleveland Ansley and the late Ann Gordon Ansley. A graduate of Camden High School and the University of South Carolina, Mickey married Becky Allen in 1981 and together raised a family. He worked in the computer and IT industry, primarily with the former PMSC and Blue Cross Blue Shield, for most of his career. Mickey was always an active member of his church serving in men’s and youth ministry, a deacon and choir member. He leaves behind a living example of faith in action, service to others, unwavering love for his family, devotion to his wife of nearly 38 years and a standard for commitment to eternal matters.
Surviving are his father Hugh Cleveland Ansley; his wife, Rebecca Allen Ansley; daughters, Laura Erskine (John) of Columbia, SC, Sarah Ansley and Rachel Ansley of Blythewood, SC; son, Brian Ansley of Blythewood, SC; grandchildren, Kaley, Rivers, and James; siblings, Terry Ansley (Sharon) of Mt. Pleasant, SC, Mark Ansley (Peter) of Philadelphia, PA, and Jacquelyn Ansley (Holly) of Knoxville, TN.
