Michael "Mike" Whiteaker

Michael "Mike" Whiteaker passed away July 9, 2023.  He was born on September 6, 1955, in Racine, WI to the late Marion Lyle and Henrietta Adell Chase Whiteaker.  Mike was a history buff and spent much time learning about World War II.  He worked as a press operator at Milwaukee Tools, where he retired after forty years.  Mike had a tough exterior and enjoyed gangster movies, however, once you learned who he was, you’d find that he was a teddy bear at heart and was a giving and patient man.

In addition to his parents, Mike is preceded in death by his sisters, Lorna Jean Childress and Lavonne Whiteaker; brothers, Lawerence Whiteaker, Milton “Larry” Whiteaker, William “Bill” Whiteaker and Monte “Butch” Whiteaker.

He is survived by his wife of 16 years, Paula Whiteaker, and several nieces and nephews.

Care by Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory.
