Mr. Whitsett retired as a MSGT from the Army after serving 22 years and moved to Pace, FL in 1976. He enjoyed fishing, bowling, coaching little league baseball, and spending time with family and friends.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Lee and Vernia Whitsett; three brothers, Boyd Whitsett, Alton Whitsett, and Clarence Whitsett; and sister, Darlene Whitsett Smith. He is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Paula Whitsett; one son, Jeremy D.
