Averill, Wayne D.
Age 76 died on Thursday, May 16, 2013 at Cleveland Clinic in Ohio after a brave battle with a very rare form of cancer. No memorial service is scheduled as his wish was for all of his family and friends to remember him at a Celebration of Life Party on June 28, 2013 at the Otisville Community Center, 130 E. Main St., Otisville, MI, at 4:30 p.m.
Wayne started as a brick layer apprentice when he was 21. He worked for the International Union of Brick Layers and Allied Craft Workers, Local 9-Michigan for over 50 years and was one of the very few Stone Mason/Brick Layers. He was employed by Jones & Simpson, Flint, MI, until he retired in 1991 and was considered one of the best in his profession until his death. He left his mark in all of his children’s homes which they will cherish forever.
Wayne loved to hunt, golf, fish, play cards, tell stories and spend holidays and vacations with his family and friends. He will be forever missed by his wife of 56 years, Donna, his 3 daughters, Dawn (Doug) Mishler, Tami (Ed) Hawkins and Kim (Joe) Jared. Grandchildren, Kristin (Sean) Clary, Lindsay Mishler, Brent Hawkins, Courtney Hawkins, Nick Mishler, Andrew, Ben, Chris and David Jared, great-grandson Jaxton Clary, brother Norton (MaryLee) Averill, sister Patricia Podoley, brother-in-law Gary (Darlene) Lynch, sister-in-law Jill Lynch, many nieces and nephews and more life-long friends than anyone could ask for. The family requests that donations be sent in his memory to the American Cancer Society for the Cleveland Hope Lodge, Cleveland, Ohio. Please call 1-800-227-2345 for details.
If you have questions regarding the Celebration of Life Party, please contact Dawn at 941-518-4997.
“Be not burdened with times of sorrow for I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I’ve savored much, good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.”
