Micheal "Mike" Wacker
February 14, 1962 – November 4, 2025
Micheal "Mike" Wacker, 63, passed away peacefully on November 4, 2025, in Webster, Texas. Born on February 14, 1962, in Saginaw, Michigan, Mike was a devoted father, grandfather, and brother who lived life with heart and humor.
He dedicated over 40 years to Kroger, where he was known for his kindness, hard work, and friendly smile. Mike had a deep love for music-especially Billy Joel-and enjoyed many good times playing euchre with family and friends.
He is survived by his daughters Ashley, Kim, and Kelly Wacker; sons-in-law Cody Barrett and Gary Easterwood; and his beloved grandson Weston Barrett. He also leaves behind four sisters and one brother. Mike was preceded in death by his parents, James and Judith Wacker.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at 3:00 PM at Clear Lake United Methodist Church, 16335 El Camino, Houston, TX 77062.
Mike will be remembered for his big heart, his laughter, his love of music, and the joy he brought to all who knew him.
