Wayne Cochran

I met Wayne Cochran at a church service in the small town of Richlands, North Carolina back in the 90s. I was familiar with Mr. Cochran from his years as a Rock N Roll Star, and most notably having penned the 60s gigantic hit Last Kiss for J Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers. It was a privilege to meet this genius of a songwriter, and especially in a church venue. It was a great surprise to find this former R N R Star sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and with a twist. Most have heard Sam...

My family grew up with Wayne , my father was Ronald Akins . My grandfather was Lloyd F. AKINS . WENT TO SCHOOL with Cindy and Chris.

God is a God of all Comfort and he will Comfort the Family's...My condolences...

I remember going to the Devils triangle to hear him perform, I used to date Chris when we worked at publix in North Miami on Key Biscayne Blve. My family new him as well. So sorry aout the loss of a legend such as Wayne.

He was one of my favorites....even more so when he gave his life to Christ and preach the gospel...no doubt where he is ....
