Born on May 20, 1955, William was the son of John L. and Betty J. (Darlington) White. He graduated from Lyme Central School.
He was employed as an inspector for Fisher Cast in Watertown for 26 years until his retirement.
On August 28, 1976, he married Deborah Munk at the Three Mile Bay United Methodist Church. The couple recently celebrated their 49th wedding anniversary.
Survivors include his wife, Deborah; two daughters, Sarah (Matthew) Covey of Watertown and Marcie (Brian) Marcolini of Watertown; and four grandchildren, Julia and Jack Covey and Owen and Andrew Marcolini.
He was predeceased by his parents, and a grandmother, Edwidge “Nanny” Darlington.
An avid outdoorsman, Bayne found joy in snowmobiling, four-wheeling, hunting, and working outdoors. He loved his Corvettes and El Camino cars and enjoyed woodworking. Above all, Bayne was a simple man who cherished time with his family, and nothing made him happier than being surrounded by his grandchildren.
