Obituary for Donald Wayne Lawrence
Donald Wayne Lawrence, 68, of Salem, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, January 15, 2020.
Wayne is remembered for being a jack of all trades. He spent his career working as an auto mechanic, and in his spare time was always tinkering with some sort of project.

Left to cherish his memory is his daughter, Ebony Conner (Jason); sisters, Bonnie Cline and Linda Pugh; brothers, Alan and Bill Lawrence; grandson, Cody Wade Conner; granddaughter, Olivia Hope Conner; nieces, Cynthia Sledd (Kenny), and Trisha L. Richardson; nephew, Jason A. Vaughan; also left to cherish his memory are numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, great-nieces, and nephews.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, January 18, 2020, from 2-4 p.m. at John M. Oakey & Son Funeral Home, in Salem. Per his request, no memorial service will be held.
