Obituary
Micah Bradley “Bubba” Wakeman, 43, of Mt. Pulaski
passed away on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 in Emden.
Micah was born on December 25, 1973 in Decatur, the
son of Jerry Wakeman and Gwendolyn Gilman. Micah
married Laura Pierdos on September 22, 1995 in
Westfield.
Micah is survived by his wife: Laura Wakeman; his
children: Ashton, Emily, Josie, and Zeke Wakeman all
of Mount Pulaski; his father: Jerry (Gail) Wakeman;
his mother: Gwen Wagner; his sisters: Cynthia

Deborah Pierdos; father-in-law: John Pierdos;

IN; 16 aunts & uncles, 14 nieces & nephews and
numerous cousins. Additionally, Micah was a father
figure to TeNejah and Taylah; as well as many other
foster children.
First and foremost he was a servant of Christ.
Because of this he was able to serve his family, his
church, and his community selflessly. He found joy
in farming and had a passion for the fatherless
which led him to foster children in need--causing
him to lead mission trips around the world. |
Micah was a Firefighter in Decatur. He was an elder
at Mount Pulaski Christian Church where he also
taught Sunday school, was a youth group leader, and
filled countless other roles. He was associated with
the Emmaus Community and was the Director of Mount
Pulaski EMS.
