Alexander Milton White, III, 75, passed away Thursday, October 9, 2025 at his home in Morrison with his family by his side. Born in Jacksonville, Fl., he was the son of the late Alexander Milton White, Jr and Eva Hulburt White.

He is survived by his loving son and daughter-in-law, Justin and Maria White of Morrison and his precious grandchildren, Bowden, McKinsley and Elsie Mae White all of Morrison.

A member of the Baptist church, Mr. White was retired from Yates/Nissan where he was a forklift mechanic.  He enjoyed fishing and being at the lake.  As a single father, he raised his son Justin, with whom he shared a close relationship. Mr. White was affectionately known as "Pepaw" to Bowden, McKinsley, and Elsie Mae, a title he valued greatly. His involvement in the lives of his grandchildren went beyond this; he regularly transported them from school to practices and attended every game, positively impacting their daily lives.

Per Mr. White’s request he will be cremated.
