Michelle L. Czerpak

June 23, 1980 — March 1, 2025

Akron


With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Michelle L. Czerpak, who departed this life on March 1, 2025, at the age of 44 after a lengthy illness.

Born on June 23, 1980, in Akron, Ohio, Michelle was the beloved daughter of Anthony and Deborah (née Varner) Czerpak. She was a dedicated employee of GOJO Industries for 16 years, leaving behind a legacy of hard work, kindness, and friendship.

Michelle received a call—an offer she couldn’t refuse—for an appointment from which she will not return. This new journey comes with a tremendous sign-on bonus: a long-awaited reunion with cherished family and friends who have gone before her. Though saying goodbye is never easy, we find comfort in knowing she is free from the struggles of this world. A good heart has stopped beating, but the love she shared will continue to live on in the hearts of those she touched.

Michelle was known for her generous spirit, infectious laughter, and unwavering love for her family. She had a gift for making people feel special, whether through her thoughtful gestures or her ability to brighten any room. She enjoyed spending time with loved ones, listening to music, and finding joy in life’s simple moments. Above all, she was a devoted mother and grandmother whose greatest pride was her family.

Michelle leaves behind a deep void in the lives of those who loved her, including her daughters, Tiarra Czerpak, Kechelle Whitehead, and Shannia Whitehead; her granddaughters, Nyomi Greer and Amaria Magrell who lovingly called her (GG); her brothers, James Czerpak and Michael Czerpak.

She is now reunited with those who preceded her in passing, including her sisters, Toni Cremeans and Nicole Czerpak; and nephews, Cody Czerpak and Christian Gibson.

Family and friends are invited to gather in remembrance at Newcomer Funeral Home, 131 N. Canton Road, Akron, Ohio, on Tuesday, March 11, 2025, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and again on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., with funeral services beginning at 11:00 a.m. Michelle will be laid to rest at Greenlawn Memorial Park, 25870 Romig Road, Akron, Ohio.

She may be gone from our sight, but she will never be gone from our hearts.
