Wednesday, August 18, 2004

Rev. David Wayne Wiman Sr., age 93, died peacefully, surrounded by loved ones, on Aug. 16, 2004, at the Superior Care Home. He was an ordained Cumberland Presbyterian minister for 72 years. His last pastorates were the Margaret Hank Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Paducah, where he served nine years, and the Sturgis Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Sturgis, where he served 4.5 years. Since retirement he has served as an interim pastor at different churches, including seven years at United Central Presbyterian Church in Paducah, and has filled pulpits when needed. Often called a "bridge builder," Rev. Wiman had a gift for bringing peace to churches in trouble and was admired for his life of devotion and service to others.

He was a graduate of Bethel College and Cumberland Presbyterian Seminary (now Memphis Theological Seminary). He served the Cumberland Presbyterian Denomination in many ways, including Moderator of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in 1958-59 (the highest honor that can be bestowed on a person in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church), General Assembly Stated Clerk for 10 years and Board of Finance for six years. He was also moderator of many presbyteries, served on different boards and conducted many revivals.

Rev. Wiman was a member of many organizations, including Eastern Star, Al Menah Shrine and several civic organizations. He was a former president of Kiwanis of Fayetteville, Tenn., a Mason for 63 years and is listed in the Who's Who of America.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Louise Long Wiman; son, David Wiman (Toni) of Hardin County, Ill.; daughter, Vicki Wiman of Tallahassee, Fla.; grandson, Robert Wiman (Diedre) of Harrisburg, Ill.; two great-grandsons, Jared and Jacob Wiman; stepgrandchildren; step-great-grandchildren; nephews and nieces. He was preceded in death by his first wife, Helen Bright Wiman; parents, Cora and George Wiman; and brothers, Vale and Frank Wiman.

His family is strengthened by his unconditional love and his faith in God. We have a void in our hearts as we miss the sparkle in his eyes, his loving smile and sense of humor.

Services will be conducted at the Milner & Orr Funeral Home, 120 Memorial Drive, Paducah, KY 42002, on Thursday, Aug. 19, 2004, at 1 p.m. with visitation Wednesday, Aug. 18, 2004, beginning at 5 p.m. Rev. Stan Gerard will officiate with Rev. Mary Parson assisting. Interment is at Maplelawn Park Cemetery.
