Wayne was a man of quiet strength, unwavering faith and a big heart. A true craftsman of both wood and spirit, he spent his life building not just with tools but through the love he poured into his family. He was the cornerstone of his home, providing a steady hand and a gentle word to anyone in need. His life was a true testament to the power of faith and the importance of family.

As an avid outdoorsman, some of his happiest hours were spent under the sun fishing and hunting. He often said that you are closest to God in nature. Gardening was also a passion, even though his garden became smaller as he aged, his thankfulness didn't Not a day went by that he didn't rejoice in the Lord for what he was given. If he wasn't gardening, he could be found "tinkering" on projects.

Wayne's love for his family was so strong, he was always concerned about his family and especially about all grandchildren and great- grandchildren. He wanted to know what each were doing and about their well-being. Known as Grandpa Goody by all the grandchildren, he never forgot a birthday or Christmas. He was loved by each of them.

His faith was his compass. A devoted member of First Baptist Church of Calhoun, he lived his life as a reflection of his beliefs; with kindness, integrity, a servant's heart, and as a constant source of spiritual encouragement to those around him. He was loved by all.
