Michael James Wilkes Obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Michael James Wilkes of Newport, North Carolina, born in Raleigh, North Carolina, who passed away on June 27, 2024, at the age of 52, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Michael James Wilkes to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Michael had on those he encountered along his journey. Though Michael may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, his essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
He is survived by: his sons, Zach and Ryan; his parents, Cecil Wilkes and Brenda Wilkes; his sister Cindy Briggs (Jeff); and his fiancée Joan Joenk. He is also survived by many other aunts, uncles, and cousins.
In lieu of flowers contributions can be made to your local animal shelter because he loved his two German Shepherds Heidi and Otis.
