He married his true love, Sharon Chambers Wise in 1962 and shared 55 happy years together, before her death in 2017. Wayne was a kind-hearted, sweet spirit, who loved his family and community. He enjoyed woodworking, gardening, and trips to the coast with his family.
He is survived by his daughters, Susan Wise and Julie Amerson, both of Greensboro; son-in-law Charles Amerson, also of Greensboro; and sister Barbara Wise Gentry of Maryville, Tennessee.
Wayne’s life will forever be cherished by his family and friends.
