Michael “UndaEstimated” Antwone Andrews was born to Cornell Staples and Cynthia J. Andrews on May 30, 1981, in Phoenix, Arizona. Michael attended public school in Maricopa County, where he received his GED in General Studies. He went on to study at Phoenix College.
Michael worked as a Customer Service Manager for two years, but he was also a self-produced artist, who enjoyed writing and recording music, hosting events, and mentoring potential artist in the Phoenix community. Anyone that knew Michael, knew he treated everyone as if they were family. He was a philomath, a lover of knowledge and facts, and was always a great conversationalist. Michael was a proud Arizonian, made sure everyone knew he was a Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and Sun Devils fan!
Michael met Candice Mary, his partner, five years ago. They shared a love of family, friends, and music.
Michael is survived by his children, NaKiyah Mayo and Michael Jr Andrew; parent Cornell Staples and Cynthia J Andrews; his siblings, Marcus Staples (Jeanetta), Jason Andrews, and Michelle Andrews; grandchildren, Ja’Nesme, Jai’Sier, and Malania; extended family members Michael Jones, Stephon, Steven, Marcus, Shalayaha, Jade, Jason, Candice Mary, Dana, and Camron.

A POEM IN REMEMBRANCE....
The day that God called your name
It broke my heart in two
But Heaven needed an Angel
And the one he picked was you
I just wish he could have waited
And let you stay with me
But you have left memories in my heart
And that's where they'll always be
I just wish I could rewind the clock
Or make it turn real slow
I could have hugged you one more time
Before you had to go
No matter how much time will pass
I'll miss you everyday
Keep shining bright in Heaven
So you can light my way
