Mr. Michael Leroy Waldroup

August 1, 1952 - August 31, 2021

Michael Leroy Waldroup, 69, of DeWitt went to his eternal Heavenly home August 31, 2021. He was born on August 1, 1952, in Robbinsville, NC and moved to DeWitt when he was 15 years old. Anyone that knew Michael, knew how much he loved his family and most of all, his Heavenly Father. You didn't have to talk to him very long before the conversation would turn to the Lord Jesus Christ. He loved to study his Bible and pray. And, when he wasn't doing that he was spending time with his family and friends. He is preceded in death by his mother, Jessie Mae Waldroup; grandparents Will and Alice Mae Waldroup; brother, Ernest Jordan, Jr.; and son-in-law, Lance Warren West. He is survived by his wife of 44 years, Lynette Stillwell Waldroup; his daughter, Ashley Waldroup West of DeWitt; son, Michael Aaron Waldroup of Conway; grandsons, Joseph Warren West and Samuel (Sammy) LeRoy West; two great-grandchildren, Harper Lee West and Sawyer Warren West; mother-in-law, Burnadean Shelton Stillwell; brothers and sisters-in-laws; many nieces, nephews, and friends, all of whom he loved dearly. Funeral services will be 2:00 September 4 at Essex Funeral Home with burial following in DeWitt Cemetery. Visitation will be from 1:00 to 2:00 before the funeral.
