Lloyd Wayne Mitchell
February 8, 1938-November 15, 2013
Wayne Mitchell found his piece of paradise on the Tennessee River, carefully tending his garden after 45 years of service as director of the radiology dept at Decatur Morgan hospital. Wayne was also an Ambassador of the Jaycee''s serving as Morgan County Fair Chairman in 1974, as well as a Rotary Paul Harris Fellow. Wayne''s presence was oftentimes felt, rather than heard. He was a man of little words and gentle strength. The Quiet loving kindness he shared with those of us he loved will live on in our hearts forever. He will truly be missed.
