It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Wayne Wynn, an extraordinary man, a loving father, brother, and a revered veteran. Born on September 18, 1952, he entered eternal rest with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on January 20, 2024.

Left to cherish his memory are his children, son Jason (Trudy)Wynn, daughter Valerie Wynn grandson Hayden, and step-son Brian Lucier His legacy also lives on through his siblings Kenneth Wynn, Janice Holmstrom, and Gregory (Veronica)Jarrett and many nieces and nephews. Wayne was predeceased by his parents, Charles Jarrett and Doris Wynn, step-father George and brother William(Billy) Wynn

Wayne left a significant mark on academia and his professional sphere. He graduated from Northwood High School (Minong, WI) in 1970 and subsequently entered the Marines in 1971. After serving his country with honor and pride from 1971 to 1974, he achieved the commendable rank of Sergeant E-5. His thirst for knowledge led him back to school, and in 1984 he graduated from NCSU, Raleigh, NC.

His career path led him to Kimberly Clark in 1985, where he excelled as a mechanical engineer at both the Augusta,GA and Neenah, WI facilities. Wayne's innovative spirit was evident as he traveled the globe and designed numerous patents for products that are widely used today. His remarkable career journey concluded with retirement in 2012.

Wayne’s exemplary life and accomplishments will be celebrated in a Memorial Service with military honors planned on August 31, 2024, at 10am at the Poplar Cemetary (Poplar, WI). Friends, family, and acquaintances are welcomed to pay their respects and memorialize a life lived to its fullest.

Undeniably, Wayne's absence leaves a void that can never be filled. However, comfort can be found in the memories we shared, the growth he inspired, and the legacy he leaves behind. Rest in peace, Wayne. You will be missed.
