Wayne Lincoln Smith

Wayne Lincoln Smith, 84, died at home in the care of his family on Sunday evening, August 13, 2006. He lived fully and loved life and all who were part of his life.

Wayne was born in Logan, February 12, 1922, to James A. Smith and Loretta Mitchell. He married his high school sweetheart, Joyce Chloe Wyatt, on December 9, 1942, in the Logan Temple. Joyce preceded him in death on September 25, 1996. He graduated from Logan High School in 1942 and continued his studies at Utah State University. His love of flying led him to serve his country in the U.S. Army Air Corps as a B-24 bomber pilot and instructor during World War II. After the war he continued his studies at U.S.U. and Idaho State University where he earned his pharmacy degree. After a short time in California he returned to his beloved Cache Valley where he practiced his profession of pharmacy and served the people of Logan for over 40 years. His faith and devotion was manifest in life-long service and friendship to others and duty to his Church. Among many other callings he served as a Bishop, High Council member, teacher, temple officiator, and missionary with his wife, Joyce, in the California-Sacramento Mission. On July 8, 2000, he married LuDene Reese Poulsen and together they loved and supported each other.
