Terry "Wayne" Lovelady Jr., 51, of Geneva, Indiana, passed away at his residence.

Wayne was born on August 4, 1973, in Decatur, Indiana, to Terry Wayne Lovelady Sr. and Phyllis Oldaker. He worked for several years driving for the Amish in Adams County and was known for his kindness, honest work ethic, and deep love of the outdoors. He found joy in hunting, fishing, collecting movies, and spending time with family and friends—especially during trips to Michigan.

He was preceded in death by his father, Terry Wayne Lovelady Sr., and his stepmother, Cheryl Louise Stalaens.

He is survived by his mother, Phyllis Oldaker of Geneva; brothers Billy Lovelady (Quincy, MI), Ed Foster (Mosherville, MI), and Brian Oldaker (Florida); and sisters Erica McCarty (Quincy, MI), Helen Stevenson (Pittsford, MI), and Becky Robinson (Akron, OH). He also leaves behind his beloved nieces and nephews: Tara (JD) Rosenbrock, Eden Carlisle, Ellery Watts, Addison Mosley, Pipef Oldaker, and Avery Robinson; one great-niece, seven great-nephews, many aunts, uncles and cousin. His loyal dog, Midget—who was truly like a child to him—was always by his side.

A celebration of Wayne's life will be held at a later date. Memorial contributions can be made in his honor to a cause meaningful to the family.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Downing & Glancy Funeral Home in Geneva, Indiana.
