Mike, who spent his life mostly out of the spotlight, was an actor like his sister.

He made his acting debut in the 1990 film “End of the Night” and co-starred with his sister in “The Quick and the Dead” five years later.

Although Mike never married, he was briefly engaged to socialite Tamara Beckwith between 1994 and 1995.

His and Sharon’s younger brother, Patrick Stone, died in 2023 at 57.

“We did lose my brother Patrick Joseph Stone to a heart attack yesterday,” Sharon announced in an Instagram video at the time. “Like any family, we thank you for your love and support in this time of immeasurable grief and we appreciate all of your condolences.”

Patrick’s widow, Tasha Stone, also shared the news with friends, writing, “My heart feels like it’s been ripped out of my chest. Patrick went to be with our sweet River … I don’t know what else to say, he was my world.”

Sharon also has a sister, Kelly, who is the youngest of the four siblings.
