Wyndale Weems Obituary
Dec. 7, 1944 - Jan. 8, 2021
Wyndale Lynn Weems, 76, of Waco, went to be with the Lord on Friday, January 8, 2021.
Lynn was born December 7, 1944, in Quitman, TX, to Sam and Nettie Weems. He was a graduate of Quitman High School, Baylor University (Bachelor's degree in Psychology), and St. Mary's University in San Antonio (Master's degree in Psychology). In 1966, he married the love of his life, Naomi. He was a dedicated employee of the Texas Youth Commission for 40 years and concluded his career at the Waco Center for Youth.
Lynn was preceded in death by his parents, and is survived by his wife, Naomi and son, Brent, of Waco; and brother, Danny of Quitman. He was a devout Christian, loving father, and committed husband. He was loved by all he knew.
Due to Covid concerns, we are regretful that the memorial service will be limited to family. Under normal circumstances, the plethora of people that held a place in Lynn's heart would be invited to attend the celebration of life of this incredible man.

I worked with Lynn at Waco Center for Youth. He was one of the sweetest, most patient people I have ever known. He always wore a smile no matter how bad a day he was having or how bad he felt. We laughed a lot about his car and how many miles it had on it, but he was determined to drive it until it would no longer run! I miss him dearly.

Lynn was one of a kind - my very special friend for many, many years. I worked with Lynn at Corsicana State Home. There was no finer man who dedicated his life to helping troubled youth. He will be missed by his family and all who knew him. RIP my forever friend.

Lynn was a fine man who dedicated his life to helping troubled youth. There is no way to count the great number of children he helped and assisted in his many years of service to Texas children.

I worked with Lynn for several years at Waco Center for Youth. I was one of the therapists on the Bosque Unit. I enjoyed Lynn's quick wit and outgoing personality. He was a sweet and loving man. I made a wreath for him that hung in his office. He will be missed. God bless his wife and family.
