Derby, Kansas - Wayne A. Ignowski, 62, beloved husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, and friend, passed away at home, surrounded by his family, on Monday, November 29, 2021, after a devastating illness.
Wayne was preceded in death by his parents, Ralph and Jean Ignowski, and father-in-law, Frank Blasi. He is survived by his wife, Kimberly; children and grandchildren, Rebecca Ignowski, Joseph and Lauren Ignowski (Gavin, Ethan, Weston, Logan, Penelope and Morgan), Cynthia and Walter Sanchez (Juniper), Mary Ignowski, Kathryn and Chris Matthews (Hayden, Theodore and Oliver), Kevin and Stacy Ignowski (Kensley), Monica Ignowski and Nathan Ignowski; as well as siblings, Deborah Ignowski and Michael Ignowski; mother-in-law, Jeanette Blasi; and many extended family members and friends.
Wayne and Kim married in February 1982, beginning a family that same year – a family that continues to grow, and was always his first priority and greatest joy. Wayne taught his children the importance of honesty, hard work, and humor. He worked diligently to support his family as an auto body technician for over thirty years and was a Wichita pioneer in paint-less dent repair. Classic cars and the music that went with them will always remind us of him.
Forever the outdoorsman, Wayne enjoyed fishing and hunting with his children, often taking them to his favorite spots while sharing memories of past adventures. His giving spirit and support was evident by the many seasons he spent helping coach basketball and baseball for his children, grandsons, and their friends.
A man of quiet but uncompromising faith, Wayne will surely be watching over all of those who love him and were loved by him, until we are one day reunited in glory.
Vigil Liturgy with Rosary will be at 7:00 pm, Friday, December 3, 2021, Funeral Mass will be at 10:00 am, Saturday, December 4, 2021, both at All Saints Catholic Church, 3205 Grand Street, Wichita, Kansas 67218. A memorial has been established at All Saints Catholic Church.
