Paul Wayne Chamblin, of West Union, died peacefully Sunday, Feb. 21, 2016 surrounded by loved ones.
Wayne was a successful businessman, having owned and operated Chamblin Furniture Company for 44 years. He and his wife, Joyce, worked side by side until her death in 2003. He took great pride in offering quality, American-made products to the good people of Adams County and surrounding areas. A graduate of the University of Cincinnati, Wayne had an electrical engineering career with NASA and General Electric prior to opening Chamblin Furniture. He was a proud member of the U.S. Air Force and Marine Corp. He was a 32nd degree Mason.
His greatest joys in life were his strong faith, friends in Christ at the Winchester Church of Christ in Christian Union, family and business. Most of all, Wayne lived his life to serve his Lord. He never met a stranger, always greeting you with a smile and embrace. He always left you with a "God bless you." He faced every adversity with a positive attitude and unwavering knowledge that God would lift him up.
