Wayne Westfall Obituary

Wayne started as a Civil Engineer in L.A. in 1964 but moved his family to Eugene, OR in 1971 where he spent the next 27 years as a Civil Engineer for the City of Eugene. But more than his job, Wayne had other passions including God and Christ, Family, Numbers and Math, The Great Outdoors, Woodworking, Disc Golf and most recently, self-publishing his own Poetry.

Wayne Westfall was born July 5, 1940 in Rochester, NY to Alice and Ralph Westfall – their oldest of 4 children. Among others, Wayne leaves behind: his two sisters, Nora Petersen and Cindy Back and bonus siblings Larry, Pat and Margaret. Other already departed family members include his parents, Alice and Ralph; his brother, Pete; and step mother, Vonna.

Of his immediate living family, Wayne is survived by: his wife, Carolyn Jo, to whom he was married 59 years; daughter, Andi; son, Scott and his wife, Kristen; bonus grandchildren, CJ and his wife Lillia, Justin and Jamie; and his little dog, Maggie.
