Julie May White

Julie M. White, 69, of Mentone, passed away unexpectedly of natural causes on Friday, September 4, 2026 in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

Born in Three Rivers, Michigan on February 9, 1957, Julie was the daughter of Michael Joseph and Helen Abigail (McGary) Hogan.

She would marry Wayne “Marty” White on September 15, 1991.

A lifetime member of the Warsaw Moose Family Center Lodge #1423, Julie worked as a bartender there and made numerous friendships along the way.

She loved traveling as a Diamond Member with Royal Caribbean on numerous cruises with her friends and family. Julie enjoyed fishing especially for bluegill and playing the casino game KENO.

Ask anyone around and Julie held the world record for giving the most wonderful hugs. She was so personable and never met a stranger because after she hugged you, you were a friend.

Julie is dearly missed by her husband, Marty, of Mentone; father-in-law, James White of Silver Lake: sisters-in-law, Jessica (Dan) Thompson of Mentone and Teresa Lambert of Madison, IN; sisters, Mary Riebe of Kingman, AZ and Ann Murry of Riley, SC; 3 children, Denny, Tammy and Joey; several nieces and nephews; and best friends, Karen and David Long.

She was welcomed into heaven by her parents; mother-in-law, Mary White: and sister-in-law, Shelly Blankenship.

A Celebration of Julie’s Life will be held at the Moose Lodge, at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the Warsaw Moose Family Center Lodge #1423 Endowment Fund, 1815 W. Lake Street, Warsaw, IN 46580.
