Wayne George Tumlin, age 76, passed away on May 14, 2025, in Sharpsburg, GA. Born on February 5, 1949, Wayne lived a life marked by his love for family, friends, and antique cars.
Wayne was a dedicated member of the Masonic Lodge, where he found camaraderie and purpose among his fellow members. His passion for antique cars was well-known, and he spent many joyful hours restoring and admiring these classic vehicles.
He was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 48 years, Linda Shi Tumlin; his son, Steven Tumlin; and his brother, Jeff Tumlin. Wayne's memory will forever be cherished by his surviving family: his daughter, Keisha Tumlin Harbin, and her husband, Nate; his grandchildren, Khloe Renee Tumlin and Dominic Ryan Harbin; his brother, Ronnie Tumlin; and his sister, Gayle Guht.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Wayne's life at a service on Monday, May 19, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. in the Chapel of Parrott Funeral Home. Visitation will be held one hour prior to the funeral service. Interment will follow at Westminster Memorial Gardens.
Wayne will be remembered for his warm heart, his dedication to those he loved, and his enduring passion for the things that brought him joy. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
