Honor Mike McDonald's Love for Animals

It is with profound sadness that I share the recent passing of James Michael McDonald. James who often went by Mike was only 53 at the time of his passing on September 14th, 2024.

Mike was an avid animal lover and nature enthusiast. He had worked in the floral design industry for almost 32 years. Fourteen of those years were spent running his own business, Enchanted Garden, which was located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

He always cherished the moments when he brought others joy, whether it was through the floral arrangements he designed or the jokes he often cracked at social gatherings. Regardless of the interaction everyone loved Mike.

Mike also had a strong faith in his Christianity. His faith helped him enlighten himself and the world around him. He always held his devotion to God closely to his heart and he believed in sharing his heart with everyone he met.

In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be made in his honor to Watermelon Mountain Ranch, 3251 Westphalia Blvd NE Rio Rancho, NM 87144.
